Gli archetipi dell'inconscio collettivo

Except his book on flying saucers, read in childhood, this was the first book I ever read by C.G. Jung. The experience led to a programme of study which occupied the next eight years, leading me to change college majors (history to religious studies) and to proceed to seminary upon graduation. The oc Leggi tutto

Jung is a mystic who sounds like a scientist. This is why his books aren't so dry that they leave you wishing they would just end. Rather, your hope you must cling to is that you have the power to process the bulk, and then maybe get to all those notes and references to another thousand books and ma Leggi tutto

В друга епоха и в друг живот Юнг би бил алхимик, теолог, астролог, философ, окултист, схоластик, жрец, религиозен водач, еретик-отцепник… Много ми допада концепцията му за психологията като млада наука, разклонила се с увеличаващото се разклоняване на науките и знанието като цяло. Самото човешко съз Leggi tutto

For those sufficiently intrigued by Jung's ideas to go deeper, this is an excellent place to start. It is the most thorough extant exposition on the collective unconscious and the archetypes that arise therefrom. Whereas Freud and some of his predecessors believed in a personal unconscious that cons Leggi tutto

I first learned about Carl Jung in a psychology class in high school and I was amazed. After spending 4 years studying philosophy and religion, I finally sat down and began reading his work and I'm glad I waited: Jung makes a ton of references to many philosophical, religious/mythological, alchemica Leggi tutto

ریویو نوشتن برای این کتاب کار من نیست. کتاب رو کامل تموم نکردم و تا صفحه ۲۲۰ تونستم بخونمش. بعدا در کنار موازي‌خوانی‌هام میرم سراغش. فعلا به این جمله از کتاب، برای ریویو اکتفا می‌کنم: "کهن الگوها اجزای نابودنشدنی ضمیر ناخودآگاه ما هستند، اما شکل‌شان دائما تغییر می‌کند." Leggi tutto

Beveik mėnesį, su pertraukom ir vengimu skaityti, kol šilta ir prie ežero norisi. Ne atostogų knyga, ir pats Jungas rašo ilgais, kartais painiais sakiniais. Ir dar tas XX a pradžios - vidurio išsilavinimas, su visom mitologijos, gamtos mokslų ir medicinos žiniom. Ir žavu, ir sudėtinga tuo pačiu, tač Leggi tutto

There are so many mixed feelings that I have about recommending this book or any of Jung's work to a general audience, but overall I cannot deny the power of his vision. The concepts discussed in this collection of work on the "Collective Unconscious" has impacted far more than just psychiatrists an Leggi tutto

This was my first proper read of Jung. I've read Modern Man in Search of a Soul, but it felt like a very superficial introduction. This book, on the other hand, is a deep dive into Jung's thought. I view myself much in Jung - particularly the combination of extreme introversion and openness. I think Leggi tutto
