Jungian dream analysis and the prose of Jorge Luis Borges

The purpose of this study is twofold. First, it attempts to provide the basis for an approach to literature according to the psychological theories of Carl Gustav Jung. Second, because Borgesian criticism lacks a psychological dimension, the thesis attempts to fill the gap by furnishing a psychological study of three collections of short stories by Borges: Historia universal de la infamia, Ficciones, and El libro de arena.
