Concisely‚ Gothic literature shows the “darker” side of life that strains at the limits between mortality and immortality‚ reason and emotion‚ order and disorder‚ mind and body‚ and love and hate.

Karen Horney and Alfred Adler are two very similar yet different neo-analytic theorists. At first glance‚ it may appear that Horney stole some of Adler’s best ideas. It is‚ of course‚ quite conceivable that she was influenced by Adler. It is clear‚ for example‚ that Horney’s three neurotic solutions are very close to Adler’s personality typology. Horney proposed a series of strategies used by neurotics to cope with other people and Adler developed a scheme of so called personality types that he intended

Julianne Campbell ENG 4U (Hachey) October 1st 2010 Alfred Hitchcock’s schizoid masterpiece Psycho cleverly portrays the theme of personality switching through characterization‚ setting and cinematography. There are two main examples of characters who show the sign of multiple identities. Norman Bates is a prime example of sort of personality switching‚ we see a major transition of his throughout this film. A not as obvious change is that of Marion Crane from a so-called good to evil transformation
