The book traces an important line of development in Jung's thought from 1912 onwards. The earliest of the papers elaborates Freud's concept of sexual libido into that of psychic energy. In those that follow we see how, Jung, discarding one by one the traditional 'philosophical' hypotheses, gradually arrived at a concept which is even more controversial than psychic energy was in its day ^DDL namely, psychic reality. The book contains the first mention of the archetype in Jung's writings as well as his later views on its nature. There is also a valuable account of the therapeutic uses of 'active imagination' first described in an essay written in 1916.
Reviews / Votes
'The eighth volume in the series of Jung's collected works is in many ways the most important to date in terms of clarity and completeness. It is the answer to the frequent demand for "a book which gives a reliable and comprehensive account of Jungian psychology". Here is just such an account, not by a disciple, but by the master himself. Almost all the key ideas are here: the structure of the psyche, the nature of the psyche, of dreams, of spirit, the archetypes, the collective unconsciousness, etc. Many of the key ideas are more fully treated elsewhere, but for a coherent presentation of them all, it would be hard to find a better source book.' - BlackfriarsMore details
