This course takes Mary Shelley’s classic novel on Frankenstein and his monster, and places it as a prophetic description of the state of the world today. It explores the influence of technology on our culture and the planet, while offering Jungian-Archetypal reflections on themes like the Feminine, death, technology, warfare and ecological crises.

Course Description

Based on a close reading of Mary Shelley’s novel, Frankenstein, this course explores multiple ways her story is a re-telling of the mythic tale of Prometheus and the Christian story of creation within the context of science and technology. As such, Shelley’s story haunts our time as a prophetic unfolding of the origins of technological power.

Using a Jungian-Archetypal approach, this course takes up these prophetic amplifications as a collective symptom that calls us to remember what we have forgotten regarding our place within nature and the cosmos.

This program is ideal if you want to be able to

  • Explore a Jungian perspective on the troubles facing our world today. 
  • View major life themes such as the Feminine, war, death, life, evil and belonging through an Archetypal lens.
  • Understand some of the archetypal dynamics that give form to our current culture and the world today.
  • Navigate the challenges facing us and the world today by understanding the archetypal patterns playing out.
  • Understand the prophetic topics in Frankenstein and how they can be applied to our current times.
