===Jung=== {{Main|Carl Jung|Collective unconscious}} Carl Gustav Jung agreed with Freud that the unconscious is a determinant of personality, but he proposed that the unconscious be divided into two layers: the [[personal unconscious]] and the [[collective unconscious]]. The personal unconscious is a reservoir of material that was once conscious but has been forgotten or suppressed, much like Freud's notion. The collective unconscious, however, is the deepest level of the psyche, containing the accumulation of inherited psychic structures and [[archetypal]] experiences. Archetypes are not memories but energy centers or psychological functions that are apparent in the culture's use of symbols. The collective unconscious is therefore said to be inherited and contain material of an entire species rather than of an individual.<ref>"collective unconscious (psychology) -- Britannica Online Encyclopedia." Encyclopedia - Britannica Online Encyclopedia. N.p., n.d. Web. 4 Dec. 2011. <http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/125572/collective-unconscious>.</ref> The collective unconscious is, according to Jung, "[the] whole spiritual heritage of mankind's evolution, born anew in the brain structure of every individual".<ref>Campbell, J. (1971). Hero with a thousand faces. New York, NY: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich</ref> In addition to the structure of the unconscious, Jung differed from Freud in that he did not believe that [[Human sexuality|sexuality]] was at the base of all unconscious thoughts.<ref>"Jung, Carl Gustav." The Columbia encyclopedia. 6th. ed. Columbia: Columbia University Press, 2000. 1490. Print.</ref>
