Animus and Anima in Fairy Tales

Fairy tales are powerful stuff when taken seriously, which is why they continue to resonate for contemporary readers.

In this latest book, she focuses on the inner contrasexual complexes-animus and anima-that inform all our fantasies, assumptions and behavior concerning the opposite sex, both inner and outer.Von Franz, Marie-Louise is the author of 'Animus and Anima in Fairy Tales' with ISBN 9781894574013 and ISBN 189457401X.
