ПРИНЦИПИ СМИСЛОТВОРЕННЯ У ФІЛОСОФСЬКІЙ КАЗЦІ ГЕРМАНА ГЕССЕ «ПЕРЕТВОРЕННЯ ПIКТОРА»

Abstract

Deep analysis of the fairy tale is presented as a periphrasis of mystery of life, the work is traced back to its inception, symbolic value of images, magical and alchemical transformation of physical matter is depicted. The article considers the fundamental hermetic principle "As above, so below; As within, so without" that suggests that human consciousness creates reality, Eastern worldview is combined with the principle of active imagination by C. G. Jung as a way to develop self-understanding through the work with symbols and the use of a dynamic language of allegory and parable. The article examines creative principle of synchronicity performed as a metaphor and as the one that arranges events not only by "non-physical" (non-causal) mechanisms but on the basis of their sense. The meanings of psychoanalytic symbols are identified: the carbuncle crystal, the biblical serpent, the "tree of life", the fairy-tale bird.
