Downward Spiral in Sylvia Plath’s The Bell Jar

 Psychology and literature, both studies the human soul, but each one in a different way. Psychology is interested in how humans behave and the reasons behind these various behaviors, while literature depicts these human interactions and behaviors in fictional works.The literary work is the first brick in the art built by the interrelation between psychology and literature. The literary work usually describes human behaviors, moods, and penetrate their mentality to expose to the reader how they think. This interchange between psychology and literature is that the fictional work is in itself a product of a certain psychological state that the author himself is living.
