O psicodrama como facilitador para a exploração da sombra: revisão da literatura

Abstract

The present work aims to describe the landscape of academic and scientific productions concerning the interface between Carl Gustav Jung's analytical psychology (1875-1961) and Jacob Levy Moreno's psychodrama (1889-1974), highlighting the latter as a facilitating tool for exploring the archetype of the shadow. Methodologically, this research is characterized as a cross-sectional, descriptive, and exploratory study in the form of a narrative literature review. Secondary data will be used, obtained through search systems such as Google Scholar, Pepsic, and SciELO, with the goal of updating bibliographic references on the topic by selecting articles, monographs, dissertations, and theses published in the last 15 years (2005-2020). The analysis of the materials revealed difficulty in gathering articles due to the limited interaction explored in the literature between Jung’s and Moreno’s approaches. In summary, it is essential to recognize the importance of integrating psychodrama and analytical psychology as a crucial step in deepening the understanding of the shadow and enhancing therapeutic practices. Seeking mechanisms that promote this integration can enrich personal development and expand the possibilities for psychological assistance.
