Les Saisons de l'âme. Des labours aux moissons. L'analyse jungienne des contes de fées explores the symbolic landscape of fairy tales through the lens of Carl Jung’s analytical psychology. The author, Marie‑Claire Loyer‑Dolghin, traces the archetypal patterns that recur across stories of harvest, labor, and transformation, arguing that these narratives mirror the psychological seasons of the human soul. Drawing on Jung’s concepts of the collective unconscious, the anima and animus, and the process of individuation, the book offers a nuanced reading of classic and contemporary fairy tales. It examines how motifs such as the hero’s journey, the wise old woman, and the transformative harvest reflect universal developmental stages. By weaving literary analysis with psychological theory, the work invites readers to reconsider familiar tales as living maps of inner growth and cultural memory.
