ENNOBLING POISON-REVENGE FLAVOR OF A MACHIAVELLI MURDER:

ARCHETYPES IN THE FEMALE OF POPULAR NOVELS IN THE LIGHT OF JUNGIAN PSYCHOLOGY.

Abstract

Abstract: Being the collective unconscious said by Jung (2008) as innate tendencies built and transmitted from generation to generation since the dawn of humanity, we observe the exuberant value of oral manifestations for the formation of both the conscious and the collective unconscious. Through this, when Paulino (2010) states that popular culture has a timeless character and builder of the habits and customs of a society, it is analyzed, therefore, that Jungian psychology can consider it as one of the elements that formulate the self of being. From these reflections, a manifestation within this imaginary arsenal is oral literature, arising from experiences and storytelling that were later recorded as a strategy for preserving such memory. One of them, in particular, are the popular novels with origins in the Iberian tradition. Thus, this study aims to analyze the novel “Veneno de Moriana” or “El Veneno de Moriana” (1737) in one of its pioneering versions in Brazil translated by Magalhães (1973), from a Jungian interpellation, to observe the promiscuous and vindictive character of Juliana, protagonist of the novel, through the category arranged by the psychologist as: archetype. Through the theoretical sayings of Belmonte (2020), Santos (2005), Jung (2008; 2011;2016) among others.
