DISCUSSION: Dr. Warner Muensterberger pointed out that the reawakened interest in mythology and applied analysis in general signifies an important step: ego psychology adds a new incentive to an area which seemed to be essentially reserved for a deeper understanding of id and superego forces. Discussing the different versions of the Oedipus myth as depicted by Homer and then by Sophocles, Dr. Muensterberger noted that these differences may point to a social revolution which took place between the time of Homer and the era of Sophocles. In a wider frame of reference they let us understand which elements are adaptable, flexible, and show a certain plasticity and, on the other hand, those qualities which remain constant. The actual constant is that of mother-son incest, disguised in many possible arrangements.
