The Cartesian Split delves into the intricate realm of Cartesian influence as a psychological complex within the Jungian tradition. It uncovers the profound legacy of Cartesian rationality, characterized by its emphasis on abstract thinking and the masculinization of thought, which has often been viewed in a negative light, despite the advancements of modernity.
The book posits that the Cartesian creation of the Modern Age, accompanied by a radical dualism, should be regarded as a myth rather than a factual reality. However, it acknowledges the psychological existence of this myth, recognizing its impact on individuals and societies. The Cartesian myth, the book argues, is a collective dream that carries a significant message that is often overlooked. The urgency of its rhetoric suggests that there is a vital message that needs to be heard and addressed.
Through the exploration of the Cartesian myth in a fresh context, the book unveils its potential meaning for contemporary times. It appeals to academics, researchers, and post-graduate students specializing in analytical psychology, mental health, comparative mythology, and Jungian studies. By delving into the complexities of Cartesian influence, The Cartesian Split offers valuable insights and perspectives that can contribute to our understanding of human behavior, cognition, and the broader cultural landscape.
