1 in stock
Memories, Dreams, Reflections by C. G. Jung is one of the most important autobiographical works connected with twentieth-century psychology and the development of analytical psychology. Rather than being a conventional chronological autobiography, the book explores Jung’s inner life, formative experiences, dreams, spiritual encounters, intellectual development and the ideas that ultimately shaped his distinctive approach to the human psyche.
Memories, Dreams, Reflections grew from conversations between Jung and his colleague Aniela Jaffé during the final years of his life, supplemented by sections written by Jung himself and other autobiographical material. The result is an unusually personal account of the experiences behind concepts such as the collective unconscious, archetypes, individuation, symbolism and the psychological significance of dreams.
In Memories, Dreams, Reflections, Jung reflects on his childhood, family, education, medical career, relationship with Sigmund Freud, travels, religious questions and lifelong fascination with mythology, alchemy and the unconscious. These recollections provide valuable context for readers approaching his more theoretical writings, while also presenting Jung as an individual wrestling with many of the questions that informed his professional work.
Originally published in German as Erinnerungen, Träume, Gedanken, Memories, Dreams, Reflections has become an enduring classic of psychology, intellectual autobiography and spiritual reflection. This 1995 Fontana Press paperback edition is particularly suitable for readers interested in Carl Jung, psychoanalysis, analytical psychology, dream interpretation, philosophy, mythology and the history of psychological thought.
