The Cartesian Split examines the phenomenon of Cartesian influence
as a psychological complex in the Jungian tradition. It explores
the full legacy of Cartesian rationality in its emphasis on
abstract thinking and masculinisation of thought, often perceived
in a negative light, despite the developments of modernity. The
book argues that the Cartesian creation of the Modern Age, as
accompanied by a radical dualism, is better understood as a myth
while acknowledging the psychological reality of the myth. The
Cartesian myth is a collective dream, and the urgency of its
rhetoric suggests that an important message is being left unheeded.
This message may lead us to answers in the most unexpected place of
all. The book brings forth the Cartesian myth in a new context and
shows it to have potential meaning for us today. The book will be
of great interest for academics, researchers, and post-graduate
students in the fields of analytical psychology, mental health,
comparative mythology, and Jungian studies.
