Marie-Louise von Franz (1915-1998) was a Swiss psychologist and scholar, known for her psychological interpretations of fairy tales and alchemical manuscripts. She closely collaborated with Carl Gustav Jung from 1934 until his death in 1961, particularly in studies related to alchemy. She earned her PhD in philology at the University of Zurich and later served as an analyst and lecturer at the C. G. Jung Institute in the same city

Among her most notable works are "The Interpretation of Fairy Tales" (1970), "Alchemy: An Introduction to the Symbolism and the Psychology" (1980), and "The Problem of the Puer Aeternus" (1981). Additionally, she co-wrote "The Legend of the Grail" (1960) with Emma Jung. These publications, in the field of analytical psychology, explore themes such as archetypes, alchemy, and mythology.
