Among the founders of modern psychology, the Swiss psychologist Carl Gustav Jung (1875?1961) is the most enigmatic, and the one most open to religion, spirituality and mythology.
Although Jung's ideas and theories is not a big part of contemporary, mainstream psychology, he has had a significant influence on other fields, and on culture more broadly.
Concepts such as archetypes, the collective unconscious, complexes, synchronicity, the shadow, animus and anima, introvert and extrovert have practically become part of everyday language.
And many of us have taken personality tests like Myers?Briggs, which are based on Jung?s ideas.His theories reach deeper than many assume, and much of his thinking challenges a standard materialist worldview.
Was Jung one of our last esoteric thinkers? Or simply a speculative free?thinker? We have invited one of the world?s leading Jung scholars and an experienced Jungian therapist for a conversation about Jung, his thought, and what he can offer us today.
