Which Great Artists Draw from the Collective Unconscious?

You mentioned yesterday that great works of art are pulled from the collective unconscious. Which works do you feel really do that – particularly stories that contain this understanding. Rupert says: ‘The really great works of art penetrate even through the personal unconscious, through the collective unconscious, all the way back to pure being. And that’s the source of the really great timeless works of art . . . I have my own conditioning, my own limitations. So I have my own particular repertoire of artists . . . people like Beethoven, Bach, Rembrandt, Turner, Rothko . . . My favourite story is a story that Robert Louis Stevenson wrote called, “The Song of the Morrow” . . . a very mysterious, beautiful story.’
