- Title
A psique como eixo intermediário e criativo do fenômeno religioso cristão: uma análise a partir da teoria de Carl Gustav Jung focada na experiência de Paulo em 2 Cor 12. 2019.
- Abstract
This research's purpose is to analyze the experience of Paulo de Tarso in 2 Cor 12, having the Analytical Psychology and the psyche's knowledge, as well as Jung has hypostasized, as theoretical references. Jung has revealed an objective psyche spontaneously creative and intelligent which dialogue with the conscience in symbolical language. It is a source of fantasies that will generate the myths, dreams, visions, ideas, etc. The encounter between Paulo and Christ was analyzed as a phenomenon equivalent to a direct encounter between the psyche's two instances: the ego, center of the consciousness, and the Self, center of the psychic totality. Christ is an image of psychic totality to Paulo and also a complex. Within the reach of the empirical phenomenology it is a direct experience with an archetypical image, which defines the experience's numinosity. It is understood that Paulo de Tarso is an archetype of a human being who initially escapes from his fulfilment, which is a very current archetype in the contemporaneity. This is a bibliographic research, where the identity issue of the phenomenon, whether metaphysical or archetypical, is still unanswered. However, the present objective analysis presents, above all, new angles of the phenomenon, without the intention of raising polemics about the order to which they belong.
