Requirements: .ePUB reader, 35.4 mb
Overview: Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961) was a Swiss psychiatrist, an influential thinker and the founder of analytical psychology (also known as Jungian psychology). Jung’s radical approach to psychology has been influential in the field of depth psychology and in counter-cultural movements across the globe. Jung is considered as the first modern psychologist to state that the human psyche is "by nature religious" and to explore it in depth. His many major works include "Analytic Psychology: Its Theory and Practice," "Man and His Symbols," "Memories, Dreams, Reflections," "The Collected Works of Carl G. Jung," and "The Red Book."

Psychiatric Studies (Collected Works, Vol. 1)
At the turn of the last century C. G. Jung began his career as a psychiatrist. During the next decade three men whose names are famous in the annals of medical psychology influenced his professional development: Pierre Janet, under whom he studied at the Salpetriere Hospital in Paris; Eugen Bleuler, his chief at the Burgholzli Hospital in Zurich; and Sigmund Freud, with whom Jung began corresponding in 1906. It is Bleuler, and to a lesser extent Janet, whose influence bears on the studies in descriptive and experimental psychiatry composing Volume 1 of the Collected Works. This first volume of Jung’s Collected Works contains papers that appeared between 1902 and 1905. It opens with Jung’s dissertation for the medical degree: "On the Psychology and Pathology of So-called Occult Phenomena," a detailed analysis of the case of an hysterical adolescent girl who professed to be a medium. This study foreshadows much of his later work and is indispensable to all serious students of his psychiatric career. The volume also includes papers on cryptomnesia, hysterical parapraxes in reading, manic mood disorder, simulated insanity, and other topics.
Experimental Researches (Collected Works, Vol. 2)
After joining the staff of the Burgholzli Mental Hospital in 1900, Jung developed and applied the word-association tests for studying normal and abnormal psychology. The studies have remained a significant phase in the development of Jung’s conceptions and an important contribution to diagnostic psychology and psychiatry. Between 1904 and 1907 he published nine studies on the tests. These studies, together with two lectures on the association method given in 1909 at Clark University and three articles on psychophysical researches from American and English journals in 1907-1908, compose this volume.
Jung’s association studies showed the definite influence of Bleuler and also of Freud, with whom he worked closely for several years.
With this volume, the Collected Works are complete except for the Miscellany, Bibliography and Index volumes.
The Psychogenesis of Mental Disease (Collected Works, Vol. 3)
This third volume of Jung’s Collected Works contains his renowned monograph "On the Psychology of Dementia Praecox" (1907), described by A. A. Brill as indispensable for every student of psychiatry–"the work which firmly established Jung as a pioneer and scientific contributor to psychiatry." Also included are nine other papers in psychiatry, the earliest being "The Content of the Psychoses," written in 1908, and the latest being two papers, written in 1956 and 1958, which embody Jung’s conclusions after many years of experience in the psychotherapy of schizophrenia.
Freud and Psychoanalysis (Collected Works, Vol. 4)
This book gives the substance of Jung’s published writings on Freud and psychoanalysis between 1906 and 1916, with two later papers. The book covers the period of the enthusiastic collaboration between the two pioneers of psychology through the years when Jung’s growing appreciation of religious experience and his criticism of Freud’s emphasis on pathology led, with other differences, to his formal break with his mentor.
Symbols of Transformation (Collected Works, Vol. 5)
In 1911 Jung published a book of which he says: ‘…it laid down a programme to be followed for the next few decades of my life.’ It was vastly erudite and covered innumerable fields of study: psychiatry, psychoanalysis, ethnology and comparitive religion amongst others. In due course it became a standard work and was translated into French, Dutch and Italian as well as English, in which language it was given the well-known but somewhat misleading title of The Psychology of the Unconscious.
In the Foreword to the present revised edition which first appeared in 1956, Jung says: ‘…it was the explosion of all those psychic contents which could find no room, no breathing space, in the constricting atmosphere of Freudian psychology… It was an attempt, only partially successful, to create a wider setting for medical psychology and to bring the whole of the psychic phenomena within its purview.’
For this edition, appearing ten years after the first, bibliographical citations and entries have been revised in the light of subsequent publications in the Collected Works and in the standard edition of Freud’s works, some translations have been substituted in quotations, and other essential corrections have been made, but there have been no changes of substance in the text.
