Descripción Original softcover. Condición: Sehr gut. 446 p. A very good copy. - Psychology, in the view of C.G. Jung, is an inescapably subjective enterprise, its concepts and theories, practices and traditions being themselves an expression of the psyche they were developed to explain. Recognizing this, the discipline must be a critical one. Reflexively turning upon itself, its aim must be that of making the subjective factor conscious, for in this alone (and not in the attainment of any kind of "objective" knowledge) resides the authority of psychology's discourse. The furthering of psychology, it follows, depends upon the critical efforts of its most seminal contributors. It requires thinkers for whom the notion of soul has served both as vital inspiration and binding commitment. With its publication of the Collected English Papers of Wolfgang Giegerich, Spring Journal Books makes available to the psychological reader the work of one of archetypal psychology's most brilliant theorists. A practicing lungian analyst and a long-time contributor to the field, Giegerich is renowned for his dedication to the substance of lungian thought and for his unparalleled ability to think it through with both rigor and speculative strength. About vol. V: Psychological analysis usually sets its sights upon the patient or upon cultural phenomena such as myths, literature, or works of art. The essays in this volume, by contrast, have another addressee, another subject matter-psychology itself. Deeply informed by lung's insight regarding the discipline's lack of an objective vantage point outside and beyond the psyche, their lungian author again and again turns lung's contribution to psychology around upon itself in the spirit of an immanent critioue. Cutting to the Quick, the Question is put: in its constitution as psychology is lungian psychology up to the level of what its insight into psychology's lack of an Archimedean point would reouire? Are the interpretations it gives of its various subject matters-alchemy, religion, the unconscious and the rest-matched by its interpretation of itself? Has its meeting itself in them had consequences for itself, consequences in terms of the fathoming of its own truth? Or clinging to the standpoint of empirical observer, did it ultimately demur with regards to the Question of their truth and its own-this despite lung's having characterized his work as an opus divinum? Topics include lung's psychology project as a response to the condition of the world, the "smuggling" inherent in the logic of "the unconscious," the closure and setting free dialectic of alchemy and psychology, the blindness to logical form problematic, the faultiness of the opposition "Individual" and "Collective," Jung's communion fiasco, his thinking the thought of not-thinking, the veracity of his Red Book, the disenchantment complex, and, as indicated in the title of this volume, lung's psychology project as a counter-speculative "flight into the unconscious." - Contents: C.G.
