Myth and Memory. Coupled with the Phenomenology of the Numinous in Literature, Art and Popular Culture: The Psychological Approach to Understand the N

Summary/Abstract: The term numinous was devised by the Evangelistic theologist, Rudolf Ott, and denotes the specific feeling that human beings experience when confronted with transcendental forces. The numinous is felt in a twofold manner: it either has an attractive effect and contains something fascinating and spellbinding, or provokes chills, and has a threatening and spectral effect. Firstly, the stance towards the ethnological research into telling of tales will be outlined, followed by a psychological explanation of that experience. In the process, the numinous will be illuminated from the perspective of the psychoanalysis of Sigmund Freud, the individual psychology of Alfred Adler, the complex psychology of C. G. Jung and the genetic epistemology of Jean Piaget.
