Abstract
In the wide-ranging and deeply personal 2,988-word review essay titled "Thomas J. Farrell's Reflections on His Obsessions, and Walter J. Ong's Thought," I reflect on two of my obsessions and discuss each one in terms of the Jungian psychotherapist and psychological theorist Robert Moore's theory of the eight archetypes of maturity in the human psyche, each of which is accompanied by two bipolar "shadow" forms. Each of my two obsessions invovles a "shadow" form of a different archetype of maturity in my psyche. As the title of my review essay indicates, I also discuss the work of my former teacher the American Jesuit Walter J. Ong (1912-2003; Ph.D. in English, Harvard University, 1955) of Saint Louis University, the Jesuit university in the City of St. Louis, Missouri (USA), where, over the years, I took five courses from him.
