Every individual needs a system of adaptation or way of meeting the world. Each profession tends to assume its own charact
19、eristic persona or way of accomplishing the adaptation. “Only, “ Jung said,“ the danger is that they become identical with their personas-the professor with his textbook, the singer with his voice. “ The danger is to be unconscious of the persona: to think that what one has chosen to be is what one
