The Collective Unconscious in the Age of Neuroscience brings the
connection between C. G. Jung's theory of a collective unconscious,
neuroscience, and personal experiences of severe mental illness to
life. Hallie B. Durchslag uses narrative analysis to examine four
autobiographical accounts of mental illness, including her own, and
illuminate the interplay between psychic material and human
physiology that Jung intuited to exist. Durchslag's unique study
considers the links between expressions of the collective
unconscious, such as myth, fairy tales, folk tales, and 'big
dreams', and the experiences of those diagnosed with severe mental
illnesses, such as schizophrenia and bipolar I disorder. The
author's personal narrative account of a psychotic episode is at
its heart, bringing both an intimate foundation and exceptional
insight to the book. With reference to neuroscientific and genetic
research throughout, The Collective Unconscious in the Age of
Neuroscience highlights gaps in depth psychological notions of
etiology and treatment, highlights patterns of collective material
in the qualitative experience of these genetic and biological
disorders, and explores how the efficacy of pharmacological
treatment sheds light on Jung's theoretical model. The Collective
Unconscious in the Age of Neuroscience will be essential reading
for academics and students of Jungian and post-Jungian studies,
consciousness, neuroscience and mental health. It will also provide
unique insight for analytical psychologists interested in severe
mental illness and the collective unconscious.
