In what many consider to be psychologist Jung's most influential work, he used the study of one patient's mental imagery to embark on a search for the universalities of the human psyche in myth, dreams, and literature. His investigations led him to break with his teacher, Sigmund Freud, and to his redefining of the human libido as a psychic energy central to the psyche.
