Jungian film studies is a fast-growing academic field, but Jungian
and post-Jungian concepts are still new to many academics and film
critics. Helena Bassil-Morozow and Luke Hockley present Jungian
Film Studies: The Essential Guide, the first book to bring together
all the different strands, issues and arguments in the discipline,
and guide the reader through the various ways in which Jungian
psychology can be applied to moving images. Bassil-Morozow and
Hockley cover a range of Jungian concepts including the collective
unconscious, archetypes, the individuation process, alchemy, and
signs and symbols, showing how they can be used to discuss the core
cinematic issues such as narrative structure, gender, identity,
genre, authorship, and phenomenology. The authors argue that, as a
place where the unconscious and conscious meet, cinema offers the
potential for imagery that is psychologically potent, meaningful,
and that plays a role in our personal psychological development.
This much-needed book, which bridges the space between Jungian
concepts and traditional film theory, will be essential reading for
scholars and students of Analytical Psychology, psychoanalysis,
Jungian film studies, media, film and cultural studies,
psychosocial psychology and clinical psychology. It will also
appeal to analytical psychologists, psychotherapists and readers
with an interest in film analysis.
