  One of the approaches of contemporary literary criticism that has been considered by researchers is psychological criticism. Archetypes, which are the collective unconscious content, can be analyzed in human personality as a legacy of the past. By balancing the four archetypes of mask, shadow, anima, animus in oneself, one can express one's true "self" and reach individuality. This article examines the archetypes in Ahmad Shakeri's novel Naked in the Wind based on Jung's theories through an analytical-descriptive method. This novel is one of the novels in the field of sacred defense literature that tells the story of a teenager from the village of "Kanichao" and reveals the secret of the martyrs of Borhani hill after many years. This research, in accordance with the conditions of the story, provides the background for the representation of the mentioned archetypes and shows that in the novel, due to the presence of negative characters, shadow archetypes and masks have a great effect and have darkened the story’ space. With the efforts of the main character of the novel - Yusuf - the shadows and masks are removed one after another and the reality becomes clear to the people. The insistence on negative aspects has not provided the ground for the expression of the real "self" of the characters in the story and has only revealed their nature to the people. Manuscript profile
