Dreams (eBook, ePUB)

(From Volumes 4, 8, 12, and 16 of the Collected Works of C. G. Jung)

Beschreibung

Dream analysis is a distinctive and foundational part of analytical psychology, the school of psychology founded by C. G. Jung and his successors. This volume collects Jung's most insightful contributions to the study of dreams and their meaning. The essays in this volume, written by Jung between 1909 and 1945, reveal Jung's most essential views about dreaming--especially regarding the relationship between language and dream. Through these studies, Jung grew to understand that dreams are themselves a language, a language through which the soul communicates with the body. The essays included are "The Analysis of Dreams," "On the Significance of Number Dreams," "General Aspects of Dream Psychology," "On the Nature of Dreams," "The Practical Use of Dream Analysis," and "Individual Dream Symbolism in Relation to Alchemy" (complete with illustrations).

New to this edition is a foreword by Sonu Shamdasani, Philemon Professor of Jung History at University College London.

Rezensionen

'Not the least of Jung's services to his time was his demonstration of how the dreaming process in man, far from being archaic and redundant, was more relevant than ever.' - Laurens van der Post

'He was on a giant scale ... he was a master physician of the soul in his insights, a profound sage in his conclusions. He is also one of western man's great liberators.' - J.B. Priestley

'Next to Freud, no psychiatrist of today has advanced our insight into the nature of the psyche more than he has. He does not stop at its mechanism or treat it as natural science but as philosophy. But he is rescued from the tendency to academicism by his experience as a doctor; again and again, he derives from his psychiatric practice a distrust of pure theory and an original, fresh point of view.' - Hermann Hesse
