- Summary:
- This work synthesizes James Hillman's dispersed writings, lectures, and interviews on education into a coherent examination of the archetypal dynamics operating within contemporary academic settings. Meyer develops Hillman's insights to illuminate the often hidden, imaginal, and shadow aspects of students' struggles, situating these experiences within the broader framework of archetypal psychology. The study offers educators, counselors, and therapists an interpretive approach that foregrounds imagination, soul, and the daimon as significant factors in understanding student development.
