The whole point of archetypes, as I thought I understood them, was to do
just that and provide a short-hand for cutting through some of the
complexity of general observation. It may be my weakness at synthesising
general information [I hope not] but I have found each archetype helpful
as a language for describing a general situation [once I had encountered a
situation where I saw the archetype that is]. Have I misunderstoofd the
question?
