Perna, i just wanted to add that i agree with you, going directly to the source is the ultimate... your point that archetypes are once removed from the original, and likewise, teaching about an object is also removed from the object by at least one step... the archetypes circumnavigate the teacher/student relationship, allowing a creative person to educate him/herself...

as for the dangers associated, yeah, be careul...

but as these concepts are graduated from their original inception, more common are the dynamics of these theories and less "chunky" for consumption... and less dangerous as the article states in different wording..

not meant to be an insult in anyway, but i wish that i had the gift of words you seem to possess... i'm certain my point would come across much more clearly.. thank you..
