Discussion:
Personality: An Interdisciplinary approach
Both Allport and Murray emphasized the need for an interdisciplinary approach to the study of personality. What contributions to the understanding of personality can be made by disciplines such as literature, anthropology, history and mythology?
Note: Think about cultural differences; think about cultural sameness. And when you post, be specific about your choices of literature (books, movies, TV etc.), anthropology (culture), history (ours, world history, other cultures) and mythology (shared symbols and archetypes). Have fun with this question. For example, comic books (or graphic novels) are not out of the question to discuss.
