Here are two examples. One review of Mariah Carey's "Glitter" was titled "So Bad It's Good." Anne Rice supposedly wrote a book that was so different from her others that someone opined, "She's explored evil so much that she's broken through and is now exploring good." Is this what this term means?

The usual example given by Jung is St Paul's conversion on the road to Damascus. Saul of Tarsus, as he was known, persecuted christians with strong commitment. All of a sudden, in a dramatic inner incident, he becomes a devout christian and an apostle. Enantiodromia refers to the change from one opposite to the other, the very process of running (breaking through) from one opposite of a pair to another. --Xyzt1234 (talk) 10:10, 31 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

The article on Enantiosemia would be a useful addition. Enantiodromia in grammar.--Shanghainese.ua (talk) 21:30, 1 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Enantiodromia etymology / not coined by Jung

Latest comment: 7 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I think that the section about the etymology of the word "enantiodromia" should be revised: the word was not coined by Jung but reported as Heraclitus' by Stobaeus. Please see Eclogarum, Physicarum et ethicarum, Libri duo, Vol 1, 60, in https://archive.org/details/ioannisstobaeie01meingoog. Ragnarok85 (talk)

Reading Jung, one does gain the impression that Jung had a great deal of respect for Heraclitus and I think that he himself says somewhere in his writings that the term was introduced by Heraclitus.Carltonio (talk) 21:17, 6 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
