Abstract

The article constitutes the theoretical search of sources of the immaturity based on literature studies. Briefly I am appealing in it to frames of post-modern reality and I am proceeding to basics of the immaturity which in the opinion of researchers their roots are finding in the mythical period. Here cancellations of the analytical psychology of Carl Gustav Jung and Marie-Louise von Franz are becoming inspiring. Finally, directing a day current, which ideas of the immaturity seem to achieve apogee, though their causes in are growing out of completely different needs of the man. A short trait of the immaturity is my purpose, portraying the walk from mystical Hermes to the contemporary Peter Pan.
