title: Dreams of Freud and Jung: reciprocal relationships between social relations and archetypal/transpersonal imagination.
abstract: Phenomenological and quantitative comparisons of the dreams of Freud and Jung become the basis for a more extended understanding of the relation between the psychodynamic and transpersonal/archetypal perspectives. Winnicott's distinction between the dimensions of being and doing/relating offers a developmental model of these perspectives based on a dialectic between two lines of growth-each with its own forms of health/pathology and its own primitive/advanced expressions. These dimensions, in both their positive and negative forms, are shown to be densely intertwined throughout the dreams (and characters) of Freud and Jung, whose theories emerge as reasonable reflections of their complementary ways of being in the world.
