Abstract

BARRETO, Marco Heleno. Villain or hero? A meditation on the representation of the Negro in two Brazilian folk tales. Junguiana [online]. 2017, vol.35, n.1, pp. 49-60. ISSN 0103-0825.

The author examines two Brazilian folk tales from the nineteenth century and shows how the representation of the Negro in each of them points to two distinct possibilities with regards to the Brazilian psychological configuration, in its relation to the deep truth of our historical psychocultural formation.

Keywords : Brazilian soul; representation of the Negro; exclusion of the shadow; psychological integration.
