Abstract

This theory influenced on the thoughts of Islamic philosophers and mystics as Rumi . In the theory of Jung , archetypes existence in Collective Unconscious can be a new interpre• tation or anthropological and psychological form of that ancient theory. These theories in literature, form the allegorical or symbolic literary structure which give such works a lwo-fold content. In this paper, the theories of Zoroaster, Plato, Rumi and Jung were compared (with especial reference to Rumi thought). and connections between these philosophies and literature and its samples in the literary works will be explored
