After joining the staff of the Burgholzli Mental Hospital in 1900,
Jung developed and applied the word-association tests for studying
normal and abnormal psychology. The studies have remained a
significant phase in the development of Jung's conceptions and an
important contribution to diagnostic psychology and psychiatry.
Between 1904 and 1907 he published nine studies on the tests. These
studies, together with two lectures on the association method given
in 1909 at Clark University and three articles on psychophysical
researches from American and English journals in 1907-1908, compose
this volume. Jung's association studies showed the definite
influence of Bleuler and also of Freud, with whom he worked closely
for several years. With this volume, the Collected Works are
complete except for the Miscellany, Bibliography and Index volumes.
This bibliography records the initial publication of each original
work by C.G. Jung, each translation, and significant revisions and
expansions of both, up to 1975. In nearly every case, the compilers
have examined the publications in German, French and English.
Translations are recorded in Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish,
French, Greek Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian,
Portuguese, Russian, Serbo-Croatian, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish
and Turkish. It is arranged according to language, with German and
English first, publications being listed chronologically in each
language. The General Bibliography lists the contents of the
respective volumes of the Collected Works (of which this is Volume
19) and the Gesammelte Werke, published in Switzerland, and shows
the interrelation of the two editions. It also lists Jung's
seminars and provides, where possible, information about the origin
of works that were first conceived as lectures. An index is
provided of all the titles in English and German, and all original
works in the other languages. Three specialist indexes, of personal
names, organizations and societies and periodicals, complete the
work. The publication of the General Bibliography, together with
the General Index (Volume 20 of the Collected Works), complete the
publication of the Collected Works of C.G. Jung in English.
The Zofingia Club was a discussion group to which C.G. Jung
belonged as a medical student: in 1897 he became Chairman, and gave
five lectures. These have survived and are published here in a
supplementary volume to the Collected Works. The lectures are of
great interest to anyone concerned with Jung's early ideas, as a
young medical student from a strongly Swiss Protestant background.
The Lectures are: The Border Zones of Exact Science (November
1896); Some Thoughts on Psychology (May 1897); An Inaugural Address
on Becoming Chairman of the Zofingia Club; Thoughts on the Nature
and Value of Speculative Inquiry (Summer 1898); and Thoughts on the
Interpretation of Christianity with Reference to the Theory of
Albrecht Ritschl (January 1899).
The Red Book, published to wide acclaim in 2009, contains the
nucleus of C. G. Jung's later works. It was here that he developed
his principal theories of the archetypes, the collective
unconscious, and the process of individuation that would transform
psychotherapy from treatment of the sick into a means for the
higher development of the personality. As Sara Corbett wrote in the
New York Times, "The creation of one of modern history's true
visionaries, The Red Book is a singular work, outside of
categorization. As an inquiry into what it means to be human, it
transcends the history of psychoanalysis and underscores Jung's
place among revolutionary thinkers like Marx, Orwell and, of
course, Freud." The Red Book: A Reader's Edition features Sonu
Shamdasani's introductory essay and the full translation of Jung's
vital work in one volume.
The concept of 'Archteypes' and the hypothesis of 'A Collective
Unconscious' are two of Jung's better known and most exciting
ideas. In this volume - taken from the Collected Works and
appearing in paperback for the first time - Jung describes and
elaborates the two concepts. Three essays establish the theoretical
basis which are then followed by essays on specific archetypes. The
relation of these to the process of individuation is examined in
the last section. The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious is
one of Jung's central works. There are many illustrations in full
colour.
In 1911 Jung published a book of which he says: '...it laid down a
programme to be followed for the next few decades of my life.' It
was vastly erudite and covered innumerable fields of study:
psychiatry, psychoanalysis, ethnology and comparitive religion
amongst others. In due course it became a standard work and was
translated into French, Dutch and Italian as well as English, in
which language it was given the well-known but somewhat misleading
title of The Psychology of the Unconscious. In the Foreword to the
present revised edition which first appeared in 1956, Jung says:
'...it was the explosion of all those psychic contents which could
find no room, no breathing space, in the constricting atmosphere of
Freudian psychology... It was an attempt, only partially
successful, to create a wider setting for medical psychology and to
bring the whole of the psychic phenomena within its purview.' For
this edition, appearing ten years after the first, bibliographical
citations and entries have been revised in the light of subsequent
publications in the Collected Works and in the standard edition of
Freud's works, some translations have been substituted in
quotations, and other essential corrections have been made, but
there have been no changes of substance in the text.
At the turn of the last century C.G. Jung began his career as a
psychiatrist. During the next decade, three men whose names are
famous in the annals of medical psychology influenced his
professional development: Pierre Janet, under whom he studied at
the Sappetriere Hospital in Paris; Eugen Bleuler, his chief at the
Burgholzli Mental Hospital in Zurick; and Sigmund Frued, whom Jung
met in 1907. It is Bleuler, and to a lesser extent Janet, whose
influence is to be found in the descriptive experimental psychiatry
composing Volume I of the Collected Works. These papers appeared
between 1902 and 1905l most of them are now being published in
English for the first time. The volume opens with Jung's
dissertation for the medical degree: 'On the Psychology and
Pathology of So-Called Occult Phenomena', a study that foreshadows
much of his later work, and as such is indispensable to all serious
students of his work. It is the detailed analysis of the case of an
hysterical adolescent girl who professed to be a medium. The volume
also includes papers on cryptomnesia, hysterical parapraxes in
reading, manic mood disorder, simulated insanity, and other
subjects.
The psychological and religious implications of alchemy were Jung's
major preoccupation during the last thirty years of his life. The
essays composing the present volume complete the publication of his
alchemial researches, to which three entire volumes have been
devoted ^DDL the monumental Mysterium Coniunctionis, Psychology and
Alchemy, and Aion ^DDL besides shorter papers in other volumes.
This collection of shorter Alchemial Studies has special value as
an introduction to Jung's work on alchemy. The first study, on
Chinese alchemy, marked the beginning of his interest in the
subject, and was originally published in a volume written jointly
with Richard Wilhelm. The other four are now published for the
first time completely in English.

For this second edition of Civilization in Transition, essential
corrections have been made in the text, and the bibliographical
references have been brought up to date. This volume contains
essays bearing on the contemporary scene and, in particular, on the
relation of the individual to society. In the earliest one (1918),
Jung advanced the theory that the European conflict was basically a
psychological crisis originating in the collective unconscious of
individuals. He pursued this theory in papers written during the
'20s and '30s, focusing on the upheaval in Germany, and he gave it
a much wider application in two major works of his last years ^DDL
The Undiscovered Self, concerned with the relation between the
individual and a mass society, and Flying Saucers, on the birth of
a myth which Jung regarded as compensating the scientistic trends
of our technological era. An appendix contains documents relating
to Jung's association with the International General Medical
Society for Psychotherapy.
Aion is one of a number of major works that Jung wrote during his
seventies that were concerned with the relations between
psychology, alchemy and religion. He is particularly concerned in
this volume with the rise of Christianity and with the figure of
Christ. He explores how Christianity came about when it did, the
importance of the figure of Christ and the identification of the
figure of Christ with the archetype of the Self. A matter of
special importance to Jung in his seventies - the problem of
opposites, particularly good and evil - is further discussed and
the importance of the symbolism of the fish, which recurs as a
symbol of both Christ and the devil, is examined. As a study of the
archetype of the self, Aion complements The Archetypes and the
Collective Unconscious, which is also published in paperback.
The Practice of Psychotherapy brings together Jung's essays on
general questions of analytic therapy and dream analysis. It also
contains his profoundly interesting parallel between the
transference phenomena and alchemical processes. The transference
is illustrated and interpreted by means of a set of symbolic
pictures, and the bond between psychotherapist and patient is shown
to be a function of the kinship libido. Far from being pathological
in its effects, kinship libido has an essential role to play in the
work of individuation and in establishing an organic society based
on the psychic connection of its members with one another and with
their own roots.

This volume is the general index to the eighteen published textual
volumes in the Collected Works of C.G. Jung. The comprehensive
indexing goes beyond the volume indexes, and includes sub-indexes
to important general topics, such as Alchemical Collections,
Codices and Manuscripts, Feud and Numbers, the sub-indexing for the
Bible arranged by book, chapter and verse. The General Index, with
the General Bibliography of C.G. Jung's Writings (Volume 19 of the
Collected Works), together complete the publication of the
Collected Works of C.G. Jung in English.
Alchemy is central to Jung's hypothesis of the collective
unconscious. In this volume he begins with an outline of the
process and aims of psychotherapy, and then moves on to work out
the analogies between alchemy, Christian dogma and symbolism and
his own understanding of the analytic process. Introducing the
basic concepts of alchemy, Jung reminds us of the dual nature of
alchemy, comprising both the chemical process and a parallel
mystical component. He also discusses the seemingly deliberate
mystification of the alchemists. Finally, in using the alchemical
process as providing insights into individuation, Jung emphasises
the importance of alchemy in relating to us the transcendent nature
of the psyche.
Unavailable for many years, this edition presents the original
English translation of Jung's most famous and influential work. It
is a key text for the study of the formation of Jung's ideas and
for understanding his personal and psychological condition during
this crucial time.
First published in 1961.The present volume gives the substance of
Jung’s published writings on Freud and psychoanalysis between the
years 1906and 1916; two later papers are, however, added for
reasons which will become apparent.
This volume from the Collected Works of C.G. Jung has become known
as perhaps the best introduction to Jung's work. In these famous
essays he presented the essential core of his system. This is the
first paperback publication of this key work in its revised and
augmented second edition. The earliest versions of the essays are
included in an Appendices, containing as they do the first
tentative formulations of Jung's concept of archetypes and the
collective unconscious, as well as his germinating theory of types.
Psychological Types is one of Jung's most important and most famous
works. First published by Routledge (Kegan Paul) in the early 1920s
it appeared after Jung's so-called fallow period, during which he
published little, and it is perhaps the first significant book to
appear after his own confrontation with the unconscious. It is the
book that introduced the world to the terms 'extravert' and
'introvert'. Though very much associated with the unconscious, in
Psychological Types Jung shows himself to be a supreme theorist of
the conscious. In putting forward his system of psychological types
Jung provides a means for understanding ourselves and the world
around us: our different patterns of behaviour, our relationships,
marriage, national and international conflict, organizational
functioning. Appearing in paperback for the first time this central
volume from Jung's Collected Works will be essential to anyone
requiring a proper understanding of Jung's psychology.
Originally planned as a brief final volume in the Collected Works,
The Symbolic Life has become the most ample volume in the edition,
and one of unusual interest. It contains some 160 items spanning
sixty years; they include forewords, replies to questionnaires,
encyclopedia articles, occasional addresses, and letters on
technical subjects. Collection of this material relied on three
chief circumstances. After Jung returned from active medical
practice, he gave more of his time to writing, and some sixty
papers as well as books were written after 1950. Second, recent
research has brought to light a number of reviews, reports and
articles from the early years of Jung's career. Finally, Jung's
files yielded several finished or virtually finished papers that
survived in manuscript. Volume 18 includes three longer works: 'The
Tavistock Lectures' (1936); 'Symbols and the Interpretation of
Dreams' (1961); and 'The Symbolic Life', the transcript of a
seminar given in London in 1939.

Though Jung's main researches have centred on the subject of
individuation as an adult ideal he has a unique contribution to
make to the psychology of childhood. Jung repeatedly underlined the
importance of the psychology of parents and teachers in a child's
development and he emphasized that an unsatisfactory psychological
relationship between parents may be an important cause of disorders
in childhood. He maintained that all real education of children
needs teachers who not only know how to learn but who can also
develop their own personalities. Jung devotes a large part of the
book to expounding his views on these important subjects. There is
also an outline of the theory of child development, a delightful
snapshot from the life of a girl called Anna and her parents, and a
stimulating discussion of marriage as a psychological relationship.
Finally there is a chapter on child development and individuation.
"The Origins and History of Consciousness" draws on a full range
of world mythology to show how individual consciousness undergoes
the same archetypal stages of development as human consciousness as
a whole. Erich Neumann was one of C. G. Jung's most creative
students and a renowned practitioner of analytical psychology in
his own right. In this influential book, Neumann shows how the
stages begin and end with the symbol of the Uroboros, the
tail-eating serpent. The intermediate stages are projected in the
universal myths of the World Creation, Great Mother, Separation of
the World Parents, Birth of the Hero, Slaying of the Dragon, Rescue
of the Captive, and Transformation and Deification of the Hero.
Throughout the sequence, the Hero is the evolving ego
consciousness.
Featuring a foreword by Jung, this Princeton Classics edition
introduces a new generation of readers to this eloquent and
enduring work.
