On Melancholy and Mania: James Hillman and Gilles Deleuze meet Nosferatu

SEREPTIE

In this installment of LEPHT HAND, we delve into the James Hillman Uniform Edition on On Melancholy and Depression, exploring his archetypal approach to melancholy as a cosmic force and its critique of modern life under capitalism. Drawing connections to Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu, we examine how longing and melancholy transcend individual experience to reveal a richer, imaginal world. Finally, we consider the tension between archetypal and Deleuzian perspectives on dreams, desire, and becoming, highlighting the transformative power of yearning.
