Book: Archetypes in Religion and Beyond

Chapter: Introduction

DOI: 10.1558/equinox.43708

Blurb:

This a practically-led approach to archetypes and how they function to inspire us, rather than what they ultimately are. Archetypes need to be distinguished from symbols, and are understood here as diachronic schematic functions: that is, a way that symbols are continually meaningful and inspiring to us over time.
