On March 12, at the Center for Humane Pedagogy representatives of the Department of Pedagogy and Psychology held a master class on the theme: ‘Women Who run With the Wolves’ Women’s archetype in myths and legends K.P. Estes for students of academic program “Pedagogy and Psychology”, “Foreign language: two foreign languages”.
Head of the Department of Pedagogy and Psychology, Candidate of Pedagogical Sciences, Associate Professor M.B. Korzhumbayeva told about the features of female psychology, female archetype: “…in fact, fairy tales are universal. Inside every woman lives a primordial, natural being, full of good instincts, compassionate creativity and eternal wisdom. But this creature, the Wild Woman, is on the verge of extinction. The “civilizing” influence of society, unfortunately, suppresses everything “wild” in the child, that is, natural.”
Healthy, instinctive, clairvoyant, healing archetypical Wild Woman lives a full-blooded life in ancient myths and fairy tales. But she can appear again in the soul of every woman in the modern world.
Questions have been asked: “From time to time, what animal sometimes appears inside each of you?”
A student of the group PiP-17-2 Danagul interpreted the fairy tale of the Ugly Duckling.
Summing up the stories Maral Berekelovna, Sabira Sartayevna noted about female psychology: a woman feminist is too often framed, prescribed what and how to do it, thus depriving her of her strength and will. And in fact, she – a “wild creature”, full of creative energy. Interpretations of fairy tales “Vasilisa the Beautiful”, “Red Shoes”, “Seal” and their different interpretations are given as examples.
The master class ended with a quote from the American poet and philosopher Estes Clarissa Pincola (born January 27, 1945) – “Swans are never friends with mice, and mice think that swans are ducks”.
