The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious
The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious | C.G. Jung
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.

I like Carl Jung‘s work and find him quite intriguing. Unfortunately, I had a hard time staying engaged with this book. There were aspects that were interesting, but it was mostly pretty complex for my taste. #MountTBR

Suet624 I always feel that way about Jung and yet I‘m always trying to understand. 2y
NatalieR @Suet624 I felt very inadequate when reading this book. Like I should be able to understand the concepts better. I‘m going to keep at it too. I‘m hopeful it will all click someday. 2y
Suet624 Yes, sometimes I‘ve had to read sentences or paragraphs a number of times. It‘s great that you‘re trying to work through it. We have a small Jungian Center here in Vermont. I wonder if you‘d be interested in some of the classes that they offer. https://jungiancenter.org/ 2y
NatalieR @Suet624 Thank you for the reference! What a wonderful center. The classes look interesting. This may be exactly what I need. 🤓☮️ 2y
