Opis

Anthony explores the women who followed Carl Jung during his lifetime, his need for their company and their contributions to his work. The book includes studies of Emma Jung, Sabina Spielrein and Toni Wolff, as well as Jung's mother Emilie, and many other collaborators and followers. It also includes a chapter on the Red Book, the Zurich Psychological Club and Dadaism. Salome's Embrace includes primary material never before published and interviews with the women themselves, and assesses their work and its value for the generations of Jungian analysts that have followed.

Recenzje

Any study concerned with the history of Jung's ideas and their establishment in modern thought will profit from Ms. Anthony's careful and enlightening survey of the early years of the Jungian community, and especially the support of Jungian women. (Charles Poncé, Rosebridge Graduate School, Human Relations Institute Santa Barbara and the San Francisco Art Institute)

Maggy Anthony, in　Salome's Embrace,　her latest book　about　the women around Carl Jung,　enlarges and deepens her previous studies. She uses original research, interviews and critical reassessments in mini-biographies which reclaim an essential　part of women's often forgotten contributions to Jungian psychology. Her welcome and well-crafted work leaves the reader hungry for more. (Claire Douglas, PhD, is a clinical psychologist and a Jungian Analyst with the C. G. Institute of Los Angeles)

Maggy Anthony's book conjures up the world of ideas as it developed around the figure of C.G. Jung -- and the fascinating personalities behind it. It offers telling insights into the early female followers of Jung and explores their intellectual passion for the project of analytical psychology in its nascent phase. As an exercise in cultural history in general and as a contribution to the institutional history of Jungian psychology in particular, this book brings alive a lost　era whose significance is gradually being re-assessed and appreciated anew. (Paul Bishop, William Jacks Chair, University of Glasgow)
