Reificatio archètypum imagĭnis: il caso emblematico di un artista ragusano, lo scultore Alfio Nicolosi

Certain creative moments of the human biography of a Ragusa's artist, the sculptor Alfio Nicolosi, might be considered, within the general Jungian thought system, as meaningful examples of a kind of reification of archetypical images. From this, further critical considerations, mainly having historical-epistemological nature, are also proposed as regards possible structural relationships between the personal unconscious and the collective one.
