While the advent of modern technologies has increased our understanding of the physicality of prehistoric artefacts for instance their place and method of manufacture and has helped to establish more precise chronologies, the actual meanings tend to elude us. It is in this connection that the insights derived from the work of C. G, Jung could help to shed light on the significance of some of these objects and the practices with which they are associated. One worthwhile line of enquiry entails a more personal approach based on some psychological perspectives from the work of C.G. Jung. It was Jung who emphasised that the scientific rationalist perspective of modernity is just another paradigm and by no means the only way of understanding the world. Another of his important insights was to search for meaning in all human behaviour no matter how bizarre or senseless it might appear. As well as being a modern discipline, Jung’s work can I believe be extrapolated back to the past as he himself stated that some of his insights could be usefully applied to past objects and situations (Jung 1986:5).The problems involved in attempting an analysis of meaning from a period from which no literary evidence survives was one rejected as impossible, (Renfrew & Zubrow 2000) but this problem can be redressed by the application of Jung’s collective unconscious a concept concerned with recurrent patterns in human behaviour. In his view, studies based on an isolated individual are inadequate. Moreover, with regard to the Neolithic period where no written records are extant, it is virtually impossible to reconstruct such detailed information at this level. The following quotation underlines the importance Jung attached to this interpretation:-“Therapy stands or falls with the question. “What sort of world does our patient come from and to what sort of world does he have to adapt? The world is a supra-personal fact, which only deals with the personal element in man. Man is also a part of the world, inextricably involved, he carried the world in himself, something at the same time, impersonal and supra-personal (Jung 1946:30).

Since Jung’s first allusions to it, the shaman “archetype” has occupied a place of considerable importance in Jungian discourse. The trajectory of this thesis began with Guggenbuhl-Craig’s (1999) view that a “shaman archetype” must be present in Jungian analysts for them to be good at their craft. To explicate the nature and characteristics of this archetype, this thesis examined both aspects of the phrase “shaman archetype”. It was necessary to examine Jung’s classical view of archetypes and certain critiques emerged. It was concluded, after investigation, that an emergent/developmental model of archetype was supported most by current research findings. This led to a working model of archetype which enabled further exploration of the “shaman archetype” question. The second part of the thesis applied this emergent /developmental model of the archetype to Siberian shamanism by seeing if there was evidence that its central characteristic of the “pre-initiatory illness” could be explained developmentally. It was concluded that Jungian analysts need the same kind of personality structure to be able to work with and use the somatic countertransference as a psychotherapeutic tool. A comparison and contrast of these ideas with contemporary uses of shamanism was then undertaken so that the implications for the training and selection of Jungian analysts could be deduced. / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

There are rare studies referred to how to set goal more effectively in systemic view. The purpose of this article will articulate how to set a goal in order to strive for the level of life. 2nd, it will show us what a healthy person is and how to be. 3rd, trying to use the method of systems thinking to improve the quality of goal setting and to make good decisions. The upper level of goal is mentioned about what we live for. In this article we will explore what dose life mean and the specific norms of value system from the perspective of philosophy, especially in the moral choices of self-actualized person and the tests of energy level by Kinesiology. Finally, there are three conclusions by using the systems archetypes as a carrier: 1.Hold on the life goal: always allocate a certain ratio of resources to life goal to avoid being eroded by other objectives. 2.Take value system into consideration: goal setting should be guided by value system, and also take other¡¦s goal into account. 3.Choose the fundamental solution: adopt transformational learning as the fundamental solution to assist in goal setting in order to strive for the level of life of human being.

The present analysis is intended to shed some light on Forster&amp / #8217 / s use of myth, recurrent mythical images and archetypal patterns in his works. This study analyses Forster&amp / #8217 / s archetypal images making particular references to his major works namely, short stories, Where Angels Fear to Tread, A Room with a View, The Longest Journey, Howards End and A Passage to India. The study is confined to the functions and significance of the mythical images and archetypal patterns represented in the aforementioned works. Forster tried to reflect the insecurity and rootlessness of modern life through mythical motifs / he showed a modern man who has become alienated from himself and nature. Forster&amp / #8217 / s most obvious use of mythology is found in the short stories, which are fantasies. It is a mythology which stems from earth and nature, the two elements which act as unifying forces throughout his fiction. It is interesting to note further that this preoccupation with earth and nature is carried into all the other novels before A Passage to India. Forster&amp / #8217 / s use of classical myth and his general attitude toward nature and earth are found in all his fiction. The method used is archetypal criticism / it deals with archetypes which are primordial images perceived across cultures, inherited from time immemorial, issuing from a &amp / #8216 / collective unconscious&amp / #8217 / . An archetype is a mythic symbol, which is deeply rooted in the unconscious, more broadly based on a foundation of universal nature than an ordinary literary symbol, and is more generally expressive of the elemental in man and nature. Chapter one identifies the dominant archetypal approaches and further selects the most appropriate framework for a study of myth and archetypes in Forster&amp / #8217 / s work. Chapter two deals with nature archetypes which find their best expression in Forster&amp / #8217 / s short stories. Chapter three and four focus on Forster&amp / #8217 / s character archetypes in his A Room with a View, and Where Angels Fear to Tread. Chapter five attempts to explore the tragic and heroic aspects of the character archetypes in The Longest Journey. Chapter six deals with Forster&amp / #8217 / s use of archetypal symbols in Howards End. Chapter seven focuses on Forster&amp / #8217 / s prophetic vision in A Passage to India, in which Forster exhibited a prophetic tone of voice and extended the scope of his archetypes. The purpose of this dissertation is to analyse E. M. Forster&amp / #8217 / s use of myth, recurrent mythical images and archetypal patterns in his efforts to communicate his vision of life. This study argues that Forster progresses from fantasy to prophecy. Depending on this progress, Forster&amp / #8217 / s archetypes evolve. This investigation familiarises the reader with how mythical motifs and archetypes enable the author to communicate his vision of reality, which is essentially timeless.
