Summary

In the book «The Forgotten Language», Erich Fromm explores the symbolic language of dreams, myths, and fairy tales, asserting that this language is a universal means of expressing human experience. Fromm examines how the symbols and images that arise in dreams and myths reflect deep psychological processes and the collective unconscious. He analyzes various examples from literature and psychoanalysis to demonstrate how understanding this symbolic language can aid in personal development and self-discovery. The book invites readers to view dreams and myths as important tools for understanding themselves and the world around them.
