Tóth-Izsó Zsuzsanna - Egy lehetséges pszichoszintézis based irodalmi elemzési módszertan alapjai

I wonder why the band Republic sings that "I'm not me if I don't get a role" and that "it hurts to live in parts"? The success of the roles we play towards the outside world often depends on whether we identify with the appropriate subpersonality within us, or whether we choose the wrong role. According to Roberto Assagioli's psychosynthesis, these psychic parts of us operate relatively independently and have some will of their own. They swarm there, fight in our psyche and want to assert themselves. Sometimes we are one of them, sometimes we are the other. There are subpersonalities that are sublime, kind, disruptive, and shameful, but until we find, identify, and integrate them all, we will only be able to live in "parts": we will always be the part with which the self currently identifies. But who are we without the changing roles? The one who is constant and existing even when our roles are resting? Who is the one who "sits inside, in himself and alone with a thousand faces", as Attila József writes? And how do many writers and poets put into words this multifacetedness, which Sándor Weöres calls "many-many individuality", as well as the transpersonal unity that goes beyond this? The author of the volume looks for (and perhaps partially gives) the answer to these questions by outlining a literary criticism approach based on psychosynthesis.
