MYTHOLOGY OF THE PRENATAL LIFE by Francis J. Mott with annotations
by R.D. Laing This book is a sequel and companion volume to "The
Nature of the Self," which explores the intricacies of prenatal
experience, demonstrating how these processes are a reflection of
an essential life-pattern revealed in many other dimensions of
life, macrocosmic and microscopic. In "Mythology of the Prenatal
Life," these insights are explored in further detail and with true
genius, as Francis J. Mott shows how the prenatal realm is
symbolized in mythology, Biblical stories, and folk tales from many
cultures. Lovers of symbolism will relish this material, which
offers a unique perspective on familiar themes. This book is an
edited version of material previously available only as a privately
published monograph. It includes the essay "Jacob's Ladder," a
summary of the author's main ideas. The annotations made by R. D.
Laing, with whom he corresponded, have been reproduced within the
text, published here for the first time. Although Freud initially
proposed that mental life began only after birth, he was later to
revise this view. Since then, largely in counterpoint to
'mainstream psychology', many brilliant people have developed their
own unique understanding of the pre- and perinatal realms: Otto
Rank, Nandor Fodor, Stanislav Grof, Paul Verny, Arthur Janov,
William Emerson, Bill Swartley, Frank Lake, D.W. Winnicott, R.D.
Laing and many others. "The work of Francis Mott stands out as one
of the most distinctive contributions of the twentieth century to
the study of the human mind." R.D. Laing

Facsimile reprint of a seminal work on the relevance of the
prenatal experiences on later post-natal psychological, moral and
spiritual development. Francis J. Mott was a 20th Century
'Renaissance Man', whose broad life experience, personal study and
extensive work in the related fields of philosophy, mythology,
anthropology and dream analysis reflect the life of a man whose
search led him into realms of understanding that were far ahead of
his times. 'The Nature of the Self', written in 1960, and long out
of print, offers deep insight and wisdom about the developmental
processes of human life. The time is ripe for this book to make a
major contribution to the endeavour of psychological healing.
