“My goal is to teach readers to recognize and work with archetypal material,” says Marie-Louise von Franz, a student and close colleague of the founder of analytical psychology, Carl Gustav Jung. In this work, she analyzes the symbolism of the images of the Romanian fairy tale about the bewitched cat princess, which illustrates the liberation of the feminine (femininity). The author shows how this tale echoes the myths of other peoples of the world, and comes to the conclusion that the cat has been symbolically associated with the image of femininity and creativity since the time of Ancient Egypt.
