Today we are recommending another book in the Routledge series: „Post-Jungian Psychology and the Short Stories of Ray Bradbury and Kurt Vonnegut” by Steve Gronert Ellerhoff who is a scholar and writer of fiction. In this book, he explores short stories by Ray Bradbury and Kurt Vonnegut, written between 1943 and 1968, with a post-Jungian approach. Drawing upon archetypal theories of myth from Joseph Campbell, James Hillman and their forbearer C. G. Jung, Ellerhoff demonstrates how short fiction follows archetypal patterns that can illuminate our understanding of the authors, their times, and their culture. In practice, a post-Jungian ‘mythodology’ is shown to yield great insights for the literary criticism of short fiction.
