all related to the Puer Aeternus archetype... James Hillman has plenty to say about Puer (and its' relationship to American psychology) Another great student of the Puer/Senex dynamic was Yukio Mishima, especially well laid out in his Sea Of Fertility tetrology, his opus magnum, which he completed immediately prior to his fanatical death... ah, but Puer... yes, Rauschenberg is rich, oozing with Puer iconography, something absolutely central to his work and which, little surprise, has been completely ignored by the critical community... don't ask me how... but then film studies has strenuously ignored gay themes in Stanley Kubrick's work (another great student of Puer and Senex, by the way) Hillman identifies the core archetype of American 'culture', NOT as Puer, however, but as Senex, the cold, arthritic, grasping, deaf man... you may want to throw that deconstructionist bullshit down the garbage chute and rev up your Jungian head once again.... might actually learn something both interesting and useful....
