"At the end of the film, we see a much more self-assured and confident  
Batman,
fully accepting and embracing his dual nature."

"Batman isn't simply the shadow, for if it were, he would be all
of the negative things that Bruce Wayne rejected from his life.
Rather, Batman is the integrated self that has overcome the trials
and tribulations on their quest for self discovery. Having quested
and matured (as evinced in Batman Begins, 2004) this Batman
represents the developed self, which is able to hold the opposites."
