Summary/Abstract: Jung is the one who has a greater influence upon Sîrbu and consequently upon his work. The influence of the German philosopher can be traced into the structure of his fiction, in the way in which he penetrates the levels of social, ideological and political reality or in the way he presented the plays and the visual arts as a critic. As a very good German speaker, Sîrbu read Jung`s work, “The archetypes and the collective unconscious” and writes his work for the university degree, “From the C.G. Jung`s archetypes to the Blaga`s abyssal categories”. During that times, Jung wasn`t a very good known writer in our country. Lucian Blaga will be impressed by Sîrbu`s work and later he will lure him to philosophy. Thanks to Jung, Sîrbu and Blaga will remain friends for the rest of their lives. It is not a relationship from the master to the disciple, but a true friend one. The work “From Jung to Sîrbu” wants to highlight the common concept both to Sîrbu`s fiction and Jung`s philosophy: consciousness, unconsciousness, individuation, dogma and to present the way in which philosophy converts to literature.
