Description
A complete revision of Psychology of the Unconscious (orig. 1911-12), Jung's first important statement of his independent position. In 1912, at the age of thirty-seven, Jung published the original version of his work, "Transformation and Symbols of the Libido, " which marked his divulgence from the psychoanalytic school of Freud. It soon became his most widely known and influential work, and it is important in the background of "The Freud/Jung Letters." Because it represented a transitional state in the developement of his theory, Jung long wished to revise it, and in 1952 he published a completely rewritten edition, on which this transformation is based. In its author's words, it is an "extended commmentary on a practical analysis of the prodromal stages of schizophrenia. Review Quote: The work is an intellectual tour de force of a very considerable calibre, as witnessed by the quite extraordinary amount of mythological material put into it, and the extensive research this must have required.
First published in German 1912; revised 1952; this translation 1956; revised 1967.
