The spirit has at least two significant attributes. It is amaterial. Second, it gives order to chaos/matter. Dionysos represents a part of the amaterial aspect of the spirit. Apollo represents some part of that aspect of spirit which enters the material realm and gives order to matter/materiality. These are two aspects of the same phenomenon. They are not opposite tendencies at war with each other, as Nietzsche maintained but distinctive and purposive aspects of the Spirit that…

"They find me a new and original spirit in that I proceed by analysis and not synthesis,i.e. I plunge into the depths and while analyzing every atom I search out the whole." Dostoevsky[1]
On the other hand Jung had to build his concept of wholeness from his empirical studies. Ergo Dostoevsky was able to place psychological revelations into a detective story accessible to all. Whereas Jung formulated and built his ideas on wholeness in an intellectual construct which many…

sorry about the typos! I should have re-read my post before adding the comment. next time hopefully, I'll do better.
Thanks for responding so promptly! As I look quickly at both men, having read in the past many of their writings, I still wonder about the huge difference between the two: on in "modern man's search for his/her soul"; and, the other having FAITHm at least in the Eastern Orthodox arena, which is so vast, as I see it, and experience it! Do you think that Jung looked to the depths through culture, art, symbolism, etc -- the attributed of the soul; and Dostoevsky recognized the huge discrepancy be the the intelligentia and the idiot, the guildy and punishment . . . Jung delved deeply into the inner crevices and pits of the hidden reality of consciousness; and Doestoevsky the more exterior expressions in character/personalities to come at a conclusion of some kind: all is idiocy! That sanity is in being an idiot! That pomposity is so evident in many instances; and humility of failure so true and real, without all the fantasy! Sorry about the seeming judgmental words! But, it seems that one way or another, each writer/in-depth inquirer of the "unknown" is at once seeking a TRUTH, revealed but not yet known? concluding that the SILENCE of not-knowing or having the solution to the problems approached in one's life/ or the question of LIFE in general is met not only in the inquiry, but in the letting go of the inquiry, and simply living LIFE, gratefully!
As I'm simply perusing the DP's website and multiple avenues of learning, discussion, sharing and personal development, including so much more that I'm not able to define at present!
Yours is the first "post" on the FORUM that I have read . . . and my eye wandered to the question you pose concerning the SILENCE of Jung with regard to Dostoevsky.
This intreages me! I didn't realize that Jung didn't delve into the writings of Dostoesvsky. WHY? seems to be your pount and question> Am I on the right track or am I reading into your post?
