Abstract:
|
This paper examines the controversy over the Arizona 9/11 Memorial using a critical perspective informed by Jungian depth analysis. The author argues that the memorial itself and subsequent controversy are symptomatic of tension within the American psyche between irreconcilable views of reality. Jung’s concepts of the anima and animus, shadow and persona are used as a matrix within which to view the memorial as a mandala that reflects the American psyche itself, causing discord when viewers are exposed to psychic content that seeks repression. Through this analysis, the author seeks to interrogate the hidden contents of the American collective consciousness to show that the memorial may serve as a site of Jungian identification, or assimilation of competing aspects of the psyche into a unified whole. |
