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.
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 1913, C.G. Jung started a self-experiment that he called his
"confrontation with the unconscious": an engagement with his
fantasies, which he charted in a series of notebooks referred to as
The Black Books. The Red Book drew on material recorded therein to
1916 but Jung continued to write in them for decades. The Black
Books shed light on the elaboration of Jung's personal cosmology
and his attempts to embody insights from his self-investigation
into his life and relationships. Magnificently presented, featuring
a revelatory essay by Sonu Shamdasani, and both translated and
facsimile versions of each notebook, these "unmistakably Holy
Books" (Times Literary Supplement) offer a unique portal into
Jung's mind and the origins of analytical psychology.
One of the world's leading authorities on Zen Buddhism, D. T.
Suzuki was the author of more than a hundred works on the subject
in both Japanese and English, and was most instrumental in bringing
the teachings of Zen Buddhism to the attention of the Western
world. Written in a lively, accessible, and straightforward manner,
"An Introduction to Zen Buddhism" is illuminating for the serious
student and layperson alike. Suzuki provides a complete vision of
Zen, which emphasizes self-understanding and enlightenment through
many systems of philosophy, psychology, and ethics. With a foreword
by the renowned psychiatrist Dr. Carl Jung, this volume has been
generally acknowledged a classic introduction to the subject for
many years. It provides, along with Suzuki's "Essays" and "Manual
of Zen Buddhism," a framework for living a balanced and fulfilled
existence through Zen.
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.

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.
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.
Author, psychiatrist and scholar, painter, world traveller, and
above all visionary dreamer, Carl Jung was one of the great figures
of the 20th century. This text is a comprehensive compilation of
his work on dreams. Weaving a narrative that encompasses all of his
major themes - mysticism, religion, culture and symbolism - Jung
brings a wealth of allusion to the collection. He identifies such
issues as the filmic quality of some dreams, and the differences
between "personal dreams" - dreams that exist on the individual
level - and "big dreams" - dreams that we all experience, that come
from the collective unconscious. This text provides an introduction
to Jung's concepts for those unfamiliar with his work.
Modern Man in Search of a Soul is the perfect introduction to the
theories and concepts of one of the most original and influential
religious thinkers of the twentieth century. Lively and insightful,
it covers all of his most significant themes, including man's need
for a God and the mechanics of dream analysis. One of his most
famous books, it perfectly captures the feelings of confusion that
many sense today. Generation X might be a recent concept, but Jung
spotted its forerunner over half a century ago. For anyone seeking
meaning in today's world, Modern Man in Search of a Soul is a must.
Jung's discovery of the 'collective unconscious', a psychic
inheritance common to all humankind, transformed the understanding
of the self and the way we interpret the world. In On the Nature of
the Psyche Jung describes this remarkable theory in his own words,
and presents a masterly overview of his theories of the
unconscious, and its relation to the conscious mind. Also contained
in this collection is On Psychic Energy, where Jung defends his
interpretation of the libido, a key factor in the breakdown of his
relations with Freud. For anyone seeking to understand Jung's
insights into the human mind, this volume is essential reading.
PSYCHOLOGY OF THE UNCONSCIOUS PSYCHOLOGY OP THE UNCONSCIOUS A Study
of the Transformations and Symbolisms of the Libido A Contribution
to the History of the Evolution of Thought DR, C. G. JUNG Of the
University of Zurich AUTHORIZED TRANSLATION, WITH INTRODUCTION, BY
BEATRICE M. HINKLE, M. D NEW YORK DODD, MEAD AND COMPANY 1949
TRANSLATORS NOTE THAT humanity is seeking a new message, a new
light upon the meaning of life, and something tangible, as it were,
with which it can work towaids a larger under standing of itself
and its relation to the universe, is a fact I think none will
gainsay Therefore, it has seemed to me particularly timely to
introduce to the Eng lish-speaking world Dr. Jungs remarkable book,
Wand lungen und Symbole der Libido. In this work he has plunged
boldly into the treacherous sea of mythology and folklore, the
productions of the ancient mind and that of the common people, and
turned upon this vast material the same scientific and painstaking
method of psychologic analysis that is applied to the modern mind,
in order to reveal the common bond of desire and longing which
unites all humanity, and thus bridge the gaps presumed to exist
between ancient and widely separated peoples and those of our
modern time. The discoveiy of this under current affecting and
influencing ancient peoples as well as modern serves as a
foundation or platform from which he proceeds to hold aloft a new
ideal, a new goal of attainment possible of achievement and which
can be in tellectually satisfy ng, as well as emotionally appealing
the goal of moral autonomy. BINDERY MAR 1 2 This book, remarkable
for its erudition and the tre mendous labor expended upon it, as
well as for the new viTRANSLATORS NOTE light which it sheds upon
human life, its motives, its needs and its possibilities, is not
one for desultory read ing or superficial examination Such an
approach will prevent the reader from gaining anything of its real
value, but for those who can bring a serious interest and
willingness to give a careful study to it the work will prove to be
a veritable mine capable of yielding the greatest riches. The
difficulties in translating a book such as this are almost
insuperable, but I have tried faithfully to express Dr. Jungs
thought, keeping as close to the original text as possible and, at
the same time, rendeiing the difficult material and complicated
German phrasing as simply and clearly as . he subject-matter would
allow In all this work I owe much to Miss Helen I. Brayton, without
whose faithful assistance the work would never have been completed
I wish to acknowledge my gratitude to Mr. Louis Untermeyer, whose
help in rendering the poetic quotations into English verse has been
invaluable, and to express as well my gratitude to other friends
who have assisted me in various ways from time to time. B. M. H. AN
INTRODUCTION TO PSYCHOANALYSIS AND ANALYTIC PSYCHOLOGY WHEN
Professor Freud of Vienna made his early discoveiies in the realm
of the neuroses, and announced that the basis and origin of the
various symptoms grouped under the terms hysteria and neuroses lay
in unfulfilled desires and wishes, unexpressed and unknown to the
patient for the most part, and concerned chiefly with the jsexual
instinct, it was not realized what far reaching influence this
unpopular and bitterly attacked theory would exert on the
understanding of human life in general. For this theoiy hasso
widened in its scope that its application has now extended beyond a
particular group of pathologic states. It has in fact led to a new
evalua tion of the whole conduct of human life a new compre hension
has developed which explains those things which formerly were
unexplained, and there is offered an understanding not only of the
symptoms of a neurosis and the phenomena of conduct but the product
of the mind as expressed in myths and religions...
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.
Jung was intrigued from early in his career with coincidences,
especially those surprising juxtapositions that scientific
rationality could not adequately explain. He discussed these ideas
with Albert Einstein before World War I, but first used the term
"synchronicity" in a 1930 lecture, in reference to the unusual
psychological insights generated from consulting the "I Ching." A
long correspondence and friendship with the Nobel Prize-winning
physicist Wolfgang Pauli stimulated a final, mature statement of
Jung's thinking on synchronicity, originally published in 1952 and
reproduced here. Together with a wealth of historical and
contemporary material, this essay describes an astrological
experiment Jung conducted to test his theory. "Synchronicity"
reveals the full extent of Jung's research into a wide range of
psychic phenomena.
This paperback edition of Jung's classic work includes a new
foreword by Sonu Shamdasani, Philemon Professor of Jung History at
University College London.

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.
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.
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.
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).
