The Red Book - C. G. Jung




C. G. JUNG is widely recognized as a major figure in modern Western thought, and his work continues to spark controversies. He played critical roles in the formation of modern psychology, psychotherapy, and psychiatry, and a large international profession of analytical psychologists worl(under his name. His worl( has had its widest impact, however, outside professional circles: J ung and Freud are the names that most people first thinl( of in connection with psychology, and their ideas have been widely disseminated in the arts, the humanities, films, and popular culture. Jung is also widely regarded as one of the instigators of the New Age movement. However, it is startling to realize that the bool( that stands at the center of his oeuvre, on which he worked for over sixteen years, is only now being published. There can be few unpublished works that have already exerted such far-reaching effects upon twentieth-century social and intellectual history as Jung's Red Book, or Liber Novus (New Book). Nominated by Jung to contain the nucleus of his later works, it has long been recognized as the l(ey to comprehending their genesis. Yet aside from a few tantalizing glimpses, it has remained unavailable for study.
