An illustrated exploration of the many works that influenced Jung's thoughts and philosophy, drawn from his personal library and the collection in the Bodmer Library in Geneva. The book is filled with colour illustrations throughout and offers a rare glimpse into Jung's home and private world.
This book shows how Jung's theory eveolved through classics of Western literature, annotated books from his library, manuscripts of his Black Book and Red Book, other major works in which he attempted to translate insights from The Red Book for a scientific public, the Gnostic and alchemical texts he studied and presented as parallels to his psychology of the unconcious, and Eastern texts he presented in collaboration with leading scholars, establishing a cross-cultural psychology of the process of higher development.
