AB - This study aims to explore archetypes and symbols in Swan Lake from the perspective of C. G. Jung’s analytical psychology. Though Swan Lake is a Russian classical ballet, renowned contemporary choreographers continue to reinterpret it, and the iconic image of the swan is frequently exploited in commercial advertisement, films and other forms of popular culture all over the world. By drawing attention to its diverse and repetitive socio-cultural applications, this study illuminates the psychological meaning of archetypes by analyzing symbols in the three different versions of Swan Lake: Marius Petipa’s Swan Lake, Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake, and Darren Aronofsky’s film, Black Swan. As a result, Petipa’s Swan Lake portrays the dual aspects of the anima in the process of man’s self-actualization, and the other two deal with an eternal boy and girl archetype, representing the images of an adult who remains emotionally a child, often dependent on a mother or father.
