title: Archetypes and patriarchy: Eliade and Jung.
abstract: This paper first presents the understandings of the concept of archetype held by Carl Jung and Mircea Eliade. After comparing their use of the term, the paper next presents some major archetypes concerning sex roles that each theorist describes. The problems such notions create for women are analyzed. The paper ends with a discussion of some possible solutions to the difficulties caused by the human proclivity for archetypal imaging.
