"The idea of a field in analysis is borrowed from physics. A field is a pattern of energy flow that affects objects in its domain. In a psychic field, psychodynamic forces are at work at an unconscious level, producing states of consciousness in both analyst and analysand."

The interactive field in analysis may be thought of as an uninvited guest in the session. The personality of this third element is very subtle and can be very powerful. Presenting contemporary views on interpretation and the interactive field, these essays from leaders in the world of analytical psychology provide...

Complexes--groups of associations arising out of the unconscious--have been known and described in all cultures and are integral to the healthy psyche. Breuer first coined the term complexes to describe part personalities. Jung developed the concept further, assigning the shell of the complex with its amplifications and associations to the personal unconscious, and postulating a core that is archetypal in nature and rooted in the collective unconscious. In this book, Dieckmann fills a lacuna by developing a general theory of the complexes that gives both the student and the practicing...

Aion, a major work from Jung's later years, has long been a source of fascination for a wide variety of scholars and thinkers. Presented here are two substantial commentaries concerning this rich and complex text by two important figures in Jung's life and work: Barbara Hannah and Marie-Louise von Franz. This is the first volume in a series edited by Emmanuel Kennedy-Xypolitas, "Polarities in the Psyche," focusing on the broad theme of the opposites in the psyche. The next volume is "The Archetypal Symbolism of Animals."

Hannah delivered these lectures at the C. G. Jung Institute in...

Marie-Louise von Franz (1915-1998) is remembered as one of the most beloved and perhaps most important of Carl Jung's students. Her more than twenty books have inspired more than two generations of readers, many of whom found their way into Jungian psychology through her compassionate and profound insights.

She lived in Kusnacht, Switzerland, and was a scholar of Medieval Latin as well as a major figure in analytical psychology. She met Jung in 1933 and worked with him from 1934 until his death in 1961. A founder of the C.G. Jung Institute in Zurich, she published works on a wide...

An outstanding introduction to the spirit and practice of Jungian psychology. Analyzed by Jung, Humbert brings a unique understanding of Jung's ideas, developed over many years within the atmosphere of French psychoanalytic thought. Translated from French by Ronald Jalbert.

Humbert has a remarkable capacity to get right inside Jung's ideas, bringing them close to human emotional experience and forcing the reader to confront the implications. At the same time, the book has an exemplary intellectual quality.
