Abstract

The study of archetypes in literature provides a deeper understanding of how universal symbols and mythological patterns shape the structure and meaning of artistic texts. Archetypal analysis reveals the underlying cultural and psychological mechanisms that connect literature to collective memory and mythopoetic traditions. By identifying archetypal figures, plots, and motifs, researchers can uncover the continuity between folklore, mythology, and written literature. This approach not only enriches literary interpretation but also demonstrates the universality of cultural codes across nations and historical periods.
