The article was written by the famous philosophy professor Umberto Galimberti the day after the death of James Hillman.
James Hillman was an American world-famous professor who used to live in Europe for a part of his life. He was a student of Carl Gustav Jung, but he overcame his teacher. Furthermore he adopted a different approach to psychoanalysis in respect to the traditional one.
Therefore, he suggested a new approach ishould be taken n the relation between the patient and the doctor. He thought that going back to archetypes is very useful for the patient. This is because we are not aware our personalities are totally shaped by all that  we have felt before. That is why we do not immediately accept the alter. Furthermore, he was convinced that, in a way or another, today's psychological suffering is rooted in society by some feelings of uneasy archetypes.
In the article there are some key words meant to stir  the reader's  interest. The words are archetype and soul. The former represents the deepest model our psych works like the roots of the soul which govern the perspective from which we can see the world. The latter is something that cannot be defined in ordinary words. It implies a silent dialogue within  the person.
The idea of archetypes permeates the culture of modernist novelists like Virginia Wolf. Furthermore, the famous post-modernist text The Hours is based on an intertextual approach with a very famous book by Virginia Wolf.
Post-Modernism is a trend of thought about the world that developed after the Sixties. In that period the conception of authority changed out of the idea that what makes someone's authority is a higher position due to  the recognition of its authoritative stance by a social group.

This happened as a result of many university scholars questioning  authority and the nature of power in their philosophical works.
