Carl Jung (eBook, ePUB)

Wounded Healer of the Soul

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This is the first fully-illustrated biography of one of the greatest thinkers of the 20th century, famous for his pioneering exploration of dreams, the unconscious, and spirituality. Carl Jung continues to be revered today as a true revolutionary who helped to shape psychology, provided a bridge between Western and Eastern spirituality, and brought into general awareness such fundamental concepts as archetypes, the collective unconscious, and synchronicity. In this important book, Claire Dunne chronicles Jung's journey of self-discovery from a childhood filled with visions both terrifying and profound, through his early professional success, to his rediscovery of spirituality in mid-life. Special attention is paid to the tumultuous relationships between Jung and Sigmund Freud, the unconventional yet vital role performed by his colleague, Toni Wolff, and the revelatory visions Jung experienced following a close brush with death. The words of Jung himself and those who shared his work and private life are shared verbatim, connected by Claire Dunne's lively and accessible commentary and by an evocative array of illustrations including photographs of Jung, his associates, and the environments in which he lived and worked, as well as art images both ancient and contemporary that reflect Jung's teachings. Jung emerges as a healer whose skills arose from having first attended to the wounds in his own soul. This is an essential work of reference as well as a fascinating and entertaining read for everyone interested in psychology, spirituality, and personal development.

Rezensionen

Most appealing and complete presentation of Jung to the general reader since Man and His Symbols . . . would make a popular text book, perfect for the undergraduate.
Dr. John Beebe, President, C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco

Claire Dunn has managed, in this beautiful book, to capture the essential features of Jung's life and its meaning as a solid achievement.
Dr. Murray Stein, Jungian analyst

Excellent, the best [biography of Jung] yet!
Robert A. Johnson, Jungian analyst and author

Dunne has produced an attractive evocation of Jung¹s own developing understanding of what he came to call individuation .
