Summary: | This essay shows the role of the fetish in the path of appropriation of their individualities by the heroes of the novels. In order to do it literary examples focused on education will be used: not only children’s books, but stories focused on the self-individuation, referring to a Jungian Selbst in relation to the Shadow. The authors examined are Virginia Woolf, Jules Renard, James Matthew Barrie, Joanne K. Rowling e Arthur Schnitzler. The aim is to highlight parallels between the classics that have modelled the Western imagery and their Eastern roots in heroic sagas such as Gilgamesh and other myths.
