Abstract
ABSTRACT Owls are intriguing animals and omnipresent symbols throughout human history from prehistory to contemporary cinematography, challenging art historians, psychologists, and psychoanalysts. In addition to the owl’s simply decorative occurrence in art, owls as symbols—the topic of very few studies—are usually associated with night, death, wisdom, and evil. This article explores the history of the development of owl symbolism and its related archetypal meanings, which has contributed to the understanding of these birds in art, psychology, culture, and semiotics.
期刊介绍：
Jung Journal: Culture & Psyche is an international quarterly published by the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco, one of the oldest institutions in America dedicated to Jungian studies and analytic training. Founded in 1979 by John Beebe under the title The San Francisco Jung Institute Library Journal, Jung Journal has evolved from a local journal of book and film reviews to one that attracts readers and contributors worldwide--from the Academy, the arts, and from Jungian analyst-scholars. Featuring peer-reviewed scholarly articles, poetry, art, book and film reviews, and obituaries, Jung Journal offers a dialogue between culture--as reflected in art.
