Hillman

[Bonnie Kaplan]

Fellow Cowrds,

Suck that scream in now.

Take that organ out of your mouth.

Listen to the silence.

The silent cry of Woman.

Pratt, Annis (1981) Archetypal Patterns in Women's Fiction, with Bararbara 
White, Adrea Lowenstein and Mary Wyer. Bloomington, Indiana.:Indiana 
University Press

Annis Pratt uses Jungian categories while differentiating female plots in 
fiction from male ones. She follows the female hero and discovers that her 
quest differs from that of the archetypal male hero. Instead of venturing 
out into the world, she journeys with the self, finding restoration in the 
green world of nature. A male companion helps her but he is neither the 
object of her search nor her reward for accomplishing it.

The Power of the word is Man's power. He named creation. To avoid 
confrontation with his better half he took possession of it all, all that he 
named, before Eve was created.

Hillman says that polytheism is preferable to monotheism, and that the many 
dimensions of reality can never be transcended,  nor the resultant conflicts 
resolved.

Thank you S~Z, you are apt as apt can be.

But don't throw that Young Carl out of the Sailor's Grave.


The a cross-cultural archetypal Psychic collection in myth and legend, the 
dramatization of the hopes and fears and desires of human psychological 
"development, " the  'animus' and 'anima' brought into a wholeness, the 
presiding Great Mother Goddess of Life and Death, the Mother of beasts and 
of cities, and so on, are all quite useful for the Psychoanalytic Literary 
Critic of Thomas Pynchon's fiction.
