Enchanting the Unconscious - Jungs Reception in Great Britain, Red Book His First English

This original volume explores Jung's earliest English seminars, held in 1919 and 1920, in relation to the impact of Liber Novus and The Red Book and his new exoteric and esoteric concepts of analytical psychology created during the Great War.The groundbreaking seminars presented in the book yield important insights about Jung's application of analytical methods and the psychological concepts he developed in response to his confrontation with the unconscious, recorded in Liber Novus and in his Collected Papers on Analytical Psychology, edited by Dr. Constance Long, one of his first English analysands and colleagues. The English seminars illuminate the extent to which Jung shared, or alluded to, material from Liber Novus and The Red Book, supported by evidence from Long's journal which contains a wealth of additional material about Jung's method of supervision, views on transference, her own analysis and the eventual break-up of the London group.Enchanting the Unconscious is an important and timeless contribution to Jungian history and our understanding of early formulations of Jung's conceptual model of the psyche, making it of great interest to Jungian analysts, analytical psychologists, students of Jungian history and general readers interested in exploring Jung's earliest teaching seminars previously undocumented or distorted by hearsay.
