Since the split between Freud and Jung, psychoanalysis and
analytical psychology have largely developed in an atmosphere of
mutual disregard. Only in recent years have both discourses shown
signs of an increasing willingness to engage. Re-Encountering Jung:
Analytical Psychology and Contemporary Psychoanalysis is the first
edited volume devoted to a reconciliation between these two fields.
The contributors explore how Jungian thinking influences,
challenges, and is challenged by recent developments in the
psychoanalytic mainstream. In examining the nature of the split,
figures from both sides of the conversation seek to establish lines
of contrast and commonality so as to reflect an underlying belief
in the value of reciprocal engagement. Each of the chapters in this
collection engages the relationship between Jungian and
psychoanalytic thinking with the intention of showing how both
lines of discourse might have something to gain from attending more
to the voice of the other. While several of the contributing
authors offer new perceptions on historical concerns, the main
thrust of the collection is in exploring contemporary debates.
Re-Encountering Jung reflects a unique undertaking to address one
of the longest-standing and most significant rifts in the history
of depth psychology. It will be of great interest to all academics,
students and clinicians working within the fields of psychoanalysis
and analytical psychology.
