Analytical and Jungian psychology Books

Book SynopsisIn A Jungian Approach to Spontaneous Drawing, Patricia Anne Elwood provides an accessible and thought-provoking introduction to exploring spontaneous images, focusing on the value of this tool for insight into the unconscious. Illustrated with drawings of clients throughout, the book poignantly demonstrates how one can connect and access the spheres within through drawing, and how this process can reveal the unexpected.Elwood begins by accessibly introducing key Jungian concepts and exploring Jung's belief in the power of spontaneity as an invaluable tool in one's journey to the soul. As well as illuminating spontaneity, an oft-forgotten aspect of Jung's psychology, she explores themes including structure and dynamics, symbols and archetypal patterns.A Jungian Approach to Spontaneous Drawing also examines common motifs including houses, trees and people, and presents extended studies of work with children and adults and how their drawings relate and reveaTrade Review"This is a much-needed book on Image, Symbol, Jung and Therapy. Elwood’s style is very unique in a positive and readable way. The book is paradoxical - it's well anchored in theory, substantial on facts and method and yet poetic and meditative at the same time. Her style pulls the reader in and the reader stays to reflect. I found it to be such a rich experience. This book is an essential resource for analysts, mental health practitioners and graduate students in psychotherapy and art therapy." - John Allan, PhD, Professor Emeritus, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada; Jungian analyst, and author of Inscapes of the Child's World: Jungian Counselling in Schools and Clinics"Patricia Elwood’s book invites the reader into the breath-taking creative world of C.G. Jung. Not only does the author offer a comprehensive, very readable, precis of the principal tenets of Jung’s analytical psychology, but at the same time Elwood offers an in-depth appreciation of spontaneous artwork. As the unconscious reveals the wealth of its images, the author leads the reader forward to a deeper understanding of their own self. This fine, insightful book is truly an encounter with the Soul. It is a gift to all explorers of the psyche and spiritual seekers." - Susan Tiberghien, lecturer and author, Writing Towards Wholeness "Following in the tradition of C.G. Jung and Susan Bach, the author demonstrates and explains incredible revelations to be discovered through spontaneous drawing: truly A Window to the Soul! Simple images of trees, houses, human and animal figures are shown to reveal inner dynamics, helping us to better understand the nature of the psyche and its influence on our ways of being."- Dr Robert Hinshaw, PhD, C.

Book SynopsisWinner of the 2021 American Board & Academy of Psychoanalysis Annual Book Prize for Best Theoretical Book in Psychoanalysis!Stanton Marlan brings together writings which span the course of his career, examining Jungian psychology and the alchemical imagination as an opening to the mysteries of psyche and soul. Several chapters describe a telos that aims at the mysterious goal of the Philosophers' Stone, a move replete with classical and postmodern ideas catalysed by prompts from the unconscious: dreams, images, fantasies, and paradoxical conundrums. Psyche and matter are seen with regards to soul, light and darkness in terms of illumination, and order and chaos as linked in the image of chaosmos. Marlan explores the richness of the alchemical ideas of Carl Jung, James Hillman, and others and their value for a revisioning of psychology. In doing so, this volume challenges any tendency to literalism and essentialism, and contributes to an integratTrade ReviewStanton Marlan’s essays movingly mirror the steadily burning passion of the alchemists for their opus. With these critical ventures into alchemical psychology Marlan has forged an opus of his own that is more than an amalgam of other thinkers’ insights. It is a singular work of creative scholarship and imagination and is thus another link in the golden chain of engagement with the mysteries of the human psyche.Murray Stein, Ph.D., author of Jung’s Map of the SoulTo use an alchemical metaphor, in this collection of his writings, we find Stan Marlan having "taken another round in the container." That is, he works his material again and again, with it each time becoming more refined, sophisticated, and qualitatively transformed. The result is a series of deep insights and psychological wisdom, richly evolved and well worth the reader’s time. I highly recommend this intellectually clarifying and emotionally satisfying book!Pat Berry, Ph.D., Jungian AnalystOver the years my own understanding of Jung has been deepened by Stan Marlan’s own original and insightful essays on the pivotal place of alchemy in Jung’s psychology. What a joy now to have the fifteen essays gathered in this volume. For the reader the book itself becomes an alchemical vessel whose fire attests to the radical depths and reveals the expansive reach of Jung’s Alchemical Psychology beyond the narrow confines of what his psychology has become. Marlan’s scholarship and elegant writing display Jung’s alchemical imagination as a necessary and much needed recovery of the erotic coupling between psyche and nature, that dark desire of spirit to matter and for matter to be inspired. Read Marlan’s book and learn to trust and to love the brilliance of the soul’s dark light that illuminated the alchemists of old and beckons us to be with them today. Robert D.

Book SynopsisWhat is dialectical thinking and why do we need it in psychology?How are moments of truth to be psychologically discerned and differentiated?How does the recognition of the historicity of archetypal and mythological materials relate to their interpretation?In a seminar held in the El Capitan Canyon near Santa Barbara, California, in June of 2004, the renowned Jungian analyst Wolfgang Giegerich, along with conversation partners, David L. Miller and Greg Mogenson, tackled these important questions while at the same time thinking Jungian psychology forward in a radically new way.

The scope of the lives captured in this volume is moving and inspiring.Beyond Persona with Jungian Analysts provides unprecedented access to leaders of the field and would be an inspiring read for psycholoTrade Review"Lavinia Țânculescu-Popa has skillfully explored and captured the internal territories of prominent Jungian analysts allowing us to connect and open ourselves to experience how eternally connected we all are. In these analyst’s personal narratives, one begins to find parts of oneself such that one is eager to read another story finding another glimpse of ourselves. With co-editor Mark Winborn, Beyond Persona illustrates Jung’s timeless ideas which are desperately in need of reconsideration in the face of contemporary life today."Audrey Punnett, PhD, Jungian Child, Adolescent & Adult Analyst (IAAP); author of The Orphan: A Journey to Wholeness; editor of Jungian Child Analysis & Jungian Child Analysis: Cultural Perspectives"The interviews of Dr. Țânculescu-Popa are like bright gems, each with their own colour and texture. This extraordinary collection of biographies illuminates the rich cultural diversity of her Jungian colleagues. The author has the gift of creating a safe container that encourages the interviewees to reveal significant and intimate parts of their lives, beyond Persona, as inferred in the title. Her colleagues do not just talk about their entire history, but in a spontaneous, unique, and deeply personal way, reveal early periods that were decisive in forming their fundamental and lifelong attitude to themselves and to their work"John Hill, MA, Training Analyst, International School of Analytical Psychology, Zurich (ISAP) and author of the book, At Home in the World: Sounds and Symmetries of Belonging."What could be more compelling than a great story? These conversations with exemplary interviewer Lavinia Țânculescu-Popa tell the back stories of a group of Jungians who share the intimate aspects of their early lives that made them the sensitive, perceptive, and gifted analysts they are today. The reader will likely weep at the sheer vulnerability of these candid storytellers. This volume offers a novel portrayal of three generations of Jungian analysts, contributing to a history of contemporary Jungians grounded in the personal rather than the theoretical.

This book will be an essential text for academics and students of psychotherapy and counselling seeking to understand the impact and implementation of sand-tray therTrade Review"Creativity in counselling and psychotherapy has been a long-standing tradition and the use of sand tray work to facilitate insight and growth has been established with children and young people, as well as with adults, for many years. Likewise, the development over the last decade of pluralism in therapy has further facilitated creativity in theory, research and practice. Fleet’s superb text sees a perfect synchronicity of these ideas, captured together in way that supports innovation in practice for diverse populations. An essential text for those seeking to further develop their work within a pluralistic frame." - Professor Andrew Reeves, Professor in Counselling Professions and Mental Health, University of Chester and BACP Senior Accredited Counsellor/Psychotherapist "Pluralistic Sand-tray Therapy provides a contemporary, research-informed introduction to the use of sand-tray therapy with a wide range of client groups.

Book SynopsisIn this seminal work on the clinical, archetypal and spiritual dimension of trauma, the author offers a compelling vision of the transformative potential of suffering and the dialectic of Dying and Becoming. Wirtz outlines a healing path from fragmentation to integration and illuminates the resilience of the human spirit in the face of severe trauma. Trauma and Beyond will be essential reading and a valuable resource for counsellors, therapists and Jungian analysts who are challenged in their practice with individual and collective traumata.Trade Review"Wirtz courageously and brilliantly undertakes the most truculent question: ‘wither the soul after soul-murder?’. She summarizes the literature in the field, the range of methodologies, and provides numerous illustrations and case studies which demonstrate a realistic, hopeful, sequential approach to trauma integrating fragmented splinters. She illustrates the narrow passage between the necessity of ego-death, abiding a most difficult in-between, and attending the birth of an enlarged, more capacious ego state. Trauma and Beyond is not only a key contribution to the field, but has the makings of a classic study of the resilience of the soul in the face of even the most devastating traumata." – James Hollis, PhD; Jungian analyst and author"In an extraordinary synthesis of the diverse facets of the psyche activated in trauma, Wirtz truly offers the reader a way ‘beyond’ suffering into wisdom. A lifetime of experience is woven into a revelatory tapestry of heart and soul. Reflecting an emerging paradigm in the 21st century, science and spirituality are brought into kindred relations through the author’s courageous explorations of trauma. Anyone touched by trauma will benefit deeply from an encounter with this book." – Joe Cambray, PhD; past-President, IAAP"In this insightful work, Wirtz asks us to take Jung’s Red Book as a map or template for working with loss and trauma. If you are looking for guidance in clinical work in trauma and recovery or for guidance in your own recovery, you will find a treasure trove of riches here." – Polly Young-Eisendrath, PhD; author, The Resilient Spirit and Subject to Change"This profoundly moving book is a major contribution to Jungian studies in this field. Wirtz has a remarkable ability to seamlessly synthesize the spiritual, archetypal, and clinical aspects of trauma. Her wise reflections on the transformative potentials of trauma, and the meaning of the suffering it produces, are an inspiration. This book is required reading for any psychotherapist working in this field." – Lionel Corbett, MD; Pacifica Graduate Institute; author, Psyche and the Sacred and The Religious Function of the PsycheTable of ContentsIntroduction.

Book SynopsisThe Practice of Psychotherapy brings together Jung's essays on general questions of analytic therapy and dream analysis. It also contains his profoundly interesting parallel between the transference phenomena and alchemical processes.The transference is illustrated and interpreted by means of a set of symbolic pictures, and the bond between psychotherapist and patient is shown to be a function of the kinship libido. Far from being pathological in its effects, kinship libido has an essential role to play in the work of individuation and in establishing an organic society based on the psychic connection of its members with one another and with their own roots.Trade Review"My aim is to bring about a psychic state in which my patient begins to experiment with his own nature - a state of fluidity, change and growth where nothing is externally fixed and hopelessly petrified." - C.G. Jung"An excellent primer to appreciation of Jung's contribution to psychological thought." - The Virginia Quarterly Review

Book SynopsisWhat can Jungian psychology contribute to understanding children and childhood?Childhood Re-imagined considers Carl Jung''s psychological approach to childhood and argues that his symbolic view deserves a place between the more traditional scientific and social-constructionist views of development. Divided into four sections this book covers: Jung on development theoretical and methodological discussion the Developmental School of analytical psychology towards a Jungian developmental psychology. This book discusses how Jung''s view of development in terms of individuation is relevant to child development, particularly the notion of regression and Jung''s distinction between the child archetype and the actual child.

Book SynopsisIn 2009, WW Norton published The Red Book', a book written by Jung in 1913-1914 but not previously published. Snippets of information about the likely contents of the Red Book had been in circulation for years, and there was much debate and eager anticipation of its publication within the Jungian field and the larger reading public. In 2010, a conference was held at the San Francisco Jungian Institute which brought together an international group of distinguished scholars in analytical psychology to explore and address critical contextual aspects of The Red Book' and to debate its importance for current and future Jungian theory and practice. The Red Book: Reflections on C.G.

Book SynopsisAlchemical symbols are part of popular culture, most recently popularised in the Harry Potter books. Alchemy intrigued Carl Jung, the founder of analytical psychology. It inspired him as he wrote the Red Book' - the journal of his voyage of internal discovery. He devoted much of his life to it, using alchemical symbols as metaphors for unconscious processes. Alchemy and Psychotherapy explores the issue of alchemy in the consulting room and its application to social and political issues. This book argues against the dominant discourse in contemporary psychotherapy - scientific materialism - and for the discovery of spiritual meaning. Alchemy and Psychotherapy has four main sections:Alchemy and meaning' - looks at the history of alchemy, particularly the symbol of the coniunctio - sacred marriage - a metaphor for the therapeutic relationship. ''The symbolic attitude' - explores working with dreams, fairytales, astrology and the body: each of wTrade Review"A unique, coherent and multi-faceted volume. For those who find the Jungian use of alchemy bewildering, the book brings clarity and much-needed explanation. For those already into alchemy, the sheer range of topics covered and the vigour of the writing – from philosophy of science to religious experience to clinical practice – will make for an indispensable resource. Now that the intellectual and cultural climate in the West demonstrates the shifting, relative and mutable nature of things like science, bodies, sexualities, health and illness, we are justified in asking, together with these authors: Why does anyone need to be afraid of alchemy?" - Andrew Samuels, Professor of Analytical Psychology, University of EssexTable of ContentsBeebe, Foreword.

Book SynopsisDionysus, god of dismemberment and sponsor of the lost or abandoned feminine, originates both Jungian psychology and literature in Remembering Dionysus. Characterized by spontaneity, fluid boundaries, sexuality, embodiment, wild nature, ecstasy and chaos, Dionysus is invoked in the writing of C. G. Jung and James Hillman as the dual necessity to adopt and dismiss literature for their archetypal vision of the psyche or soul. Susan Rowland describes an emerging paradigm for the twenty-first century enacting the myth of a god torn apart to be re-membered, and remembered as reborn in a great renewal of life. Rowland demonstrates how persons, forms of knowing and even eras that dismiss Dionysus are torn apart, and explores how Jung was Dionysian in providing his most dismembered text, The Red Book. Remembering Dionysus pursues the rough god into the Sublime in the destruction of meaning in Jung and Jacques Lacan, to a re-membering of sublime feminine crTrade ReviewPerhaps it is a staple of a living organic mythology that periodically it be remembered anew, complete with all the divinities that inhabit and inhibit it as the myth continues to flourish. Susan Rowland’s fine lyrical study returns to recalibrate the value of two related schools of a psychology of soul by opening them to a conversation with the mytho-poetic imagination. Her own mythodology is framed by the god Dionysus, both a force and a presence who dismembers, remembers and in so doing engenders new ways of imagining what we thought we knew. Her original work dares us to enter a cross-disciplinary discourse that awakens us to the familiar. - Dennis Patrick Slattery, Ph.D.; author of Riting Myth, Mythic Writing and Creases in Culture: Essays Towards a Poetics of Depth‘In this new work Susan Rowland has given us a true gem. One of the foremost contemporary scholars in Jungian studies, Rowland has produced another remarkably engaging, erudite volume that continues to take depth psychological approaches out of the consulting room and into a larger world. The intersection of literature and myth being woven here is also artfully integrated into the emerging holistic paradigm associated with complexity studies. Rowland creatively advances Jungian studies revealing the depths of its transdisciplinary possibilities through her exploration of archetypal themes manifesting as Dionysian.’ - Joe Cambray, Ph.D., Provost, Pacifica Graduate Institute; Past-President, IAAP‘That Jung was an intellectual in the tradition of Nietzsche, who dismembered his relation to the academy in order to create, in equally epigrammatic fashion, an intuitive critique of the very foundations of our understanding, not just of the texts by which we live, but of the way our lives have become texts, has been crucially grasped by Jung’s most antischolastic follower, James Hillman. It is Susan Rowland, however, who makes good on the claim that this method of analysis has a future within the rigorous discipline of literary studies. One can only hope that she will be read with as open a mind as she displays in these well-wrought, lapidary chapters. Refocusing literary theory through a Dionysian rather than Apollonian lens, she identifies as her subject the vivifying experience of reading itself.’ - John Beebe, author of Energies and Patterns in Psychological Type: The reservoir of consciousness (Routledge, 2017)'Susan Rowland is herself a paragon of interdisciplinary scholarship, who has brought Jungian depth psychology into critical, creative relationship with literary studies, gender studies, cultural studies, eco-criticism, and much more. In the present book she uses the myth of Dionysus, importantly culminating in the god’s marriage to the mortal Ariadne, as a zone of energy and awareness from which to argue against disciplinary and epistemological hegemonies and the cultural dismemberment they perpetuate. Performing as well as comprehending psychological insights from Jung and Hillman, Rowland champions transdisciplinarity, vitality, and the multiplicity and open-endedness of knowledge and being.' - Professor Roderick Main, University of Essex'Susan Rowland's new study expands on a Dionysian concept as she defines it toward a transcendent discussion of genre, aligning it to the god, and finessing her theme that Jung was writing novels, the highest form for her, and epitomising the feminine. Establishing this and demonstrating it in her characteristic and brilliant close-up analyses of text, which is her forte, makes this is a satisfying and enigmatic work.’ - Leslie Gardner PhD, co-founder of international literary agency Artellus, and founder member of IAJS, Fellow at the Centre Psychoanalytic Studies at the University of Essex, UK“In an early example of this kind of transdisciplinary method, Rowland imagines the complementary nature of close reading and active imagination. Despite the supposed scientific nature of active imagination and the literary source of close reading, she finds both to be complementary means of interpretation, ways of awakening the soul buried within the data.” - Richard M.

Book SynopsisIn 1915, C G Jung and his psychiatrist colleague, Hans Schmid-Guisan, began a correspondence through which they hoped to understand and codify fundamental individual differences of attention and consciousness. This volume provides an historical grounding for those who work with, or are interested in, Jungian psychology and psychological typology.Trade Review"The English text is a pleasure to read, with plenty of clarifying notes. Readers will enjoy the informality of the exchange, its intellectual depth, and the humanity of Jung and Schmid-Guisan. This important addition to the history of modern psychology will engage and inform interested nonspecialists."--E. James Lieberman, Library Journal "The Question of Psychological Types is a welcome addition to anyone who would seek to understand the framework of psychological types better in its philosophical and historical context. The publishers have done a good job of putting the book into a good, clean format and have equipped the text with a generous, even lavish, amount of footnotes. Readers who will want to know more about the practical application of typology and the types will not find much to interest them here, but to readers who want to be acquainted with the historical process that spawned Psychological Types, this volume is quite simply a mandatory read."--Celebrity Types "Beebe and Falzeder provide a fascinating, scientifically important look into the development of Jung's seminal work on psychological types. Unlike works that stress how one can understand the typology and the implications of being a 'certain type,' this volume illuminates the early development, discussion, and refinement of the ideas... A must-read for scholars and enthusiasts of Jung and an excellent 'reader' for understanding the scientific enterprise prior to the development print and online journals and formal review procedures."--Choice "We now have the opportunity to read and study this very significant correspondence with the addition of the excellent introduction and annotations which the co-editors have produced and have our knowledge and understanding of Jung's psychological types greatly deepened, expanded and enriched."--Peter Kenney, Journal of Analytical Psychology "The letters themselves have been brilliantly edited with very helpful annotations that provide for the reader some greater insight into the detailed arguments and allusions contained in this correspondence."--Peter Kenney, Journal of Analytical PsychologyTable of ContentsAcknowledgments vii Illustration of First Page of 7 J, 4 September 1915 viii Illustration of First Page of 12 S, 17/18 December 1915 ix Introduction 1 John Beebe and Ernst Falzeder Translator's Note 33 CORRESPONDENCE *1 J (4 June 1915) 39 *2 S (24 June 1915) 48 *3 J (undated) 55 *4 S (6 July 1915) 63 *5 J (undated) 74 *6 S (29 August 1915) 87 *7 J (4 September 1915) 100 *8 S (28 September 1915) 115 *9 J (6 November 1915) 131 *10 S (1-7 December 1915) 143 *11 S (11-14 December 1915) 148 *12 S (17-18 December 1915) 152 *13 S (6 January 1916) 155 APPENDIX * Summary of Jung's First Three Letters 159 * Jung's Obituary of Hans Schmid - Guisan 169 Bibliography 171 Index 179

The organization of this edition in the form of a creative descent from editor's introduction to commentaries to Aurélia itself makes it wonderfully useful to a reader wishing to fathom Nerval's enigmatic text."—Michael Dolzani, coeditor of the Unpublished Notebooks of Northrop Frye"On Psychological and Visionary Art brings to publication a significant lecture by Jung, and provides readers with the context to understand Jung's argument and its importance. The lecture is rich in cultural reference and allusion. Jung himself described the memoir under discussion as being of extraordinary magnitude, and the interpretation he offers at this late stage in his intellectual development represents his mature system at work."—Paul Bishop, author of Analytical Psychology and German Classical Aesthetics"Scholars of Jung's thought will be grateful to have Jung's lecture available, to see the fascinating parallels between Nerval's experiences and those Jung documents in The Red Book, and to study the distinctions between psychological and visionary modes as well as Jung's further reflections on art. This book is a valuable contribution to Jungian studies."—Beth Darlington, Vassar CollegeTable of ContentsIllustrations vii Acknowledgments xi Permissions xiii One Introduction 1 Craig E.
