荣格原型理论是师从弗洛伊德的心理学角度提出的,可以概括为四种类型:人格面具、阿尼玛和阿尼姆斯、阴影和自性。这几点需要相互作用、相互协调,才能成就一个完整的有着健康心理的人。否则,就会失去常态,人就有可能会做出一些出格的事情,对自身和社会造成一些不良的重大影响。《红字》中齐灵渥斯和丁梅斯代尔的人格都具有双重性——美与丑,善与恶,这些都可以用荣格原型理论做出解释。 Jung’s prototype theory is proposed by Freud from the psychology point of view, can be summarized into four types: personality mask, Anima and Animus, shadow and self. These points need to interact with each other, in order to achieve a complete mental health of people. Otherwise, it will lose its normal status, and people may make some extraordinary things that will cause some adverse influences on themselves and the society. The characters of both Chillingworth and Dimmesdale in The Scarlet Letter are dual in character - beauty and ugliness, good and evil, all of which can be explained by Jungian archetypal theory.
