Synopsis "The Origins and History of Consciousness (Princeton Classics) (in English)"

The Origins and History of Consciousness draws on a full range of world mythology to show how individual consciousness undergoes the same archetypal stages of development as human consciousness as a whole. Erich Neumann was one of C. G. Jung's most creative students and a renowned practitioner of analytical psychology in his own right. In this influential book, Neumann shows how the stages begin and end with the symbol of the Uroboros, the tail-eating serpent. The intermediate stages are projected in the universal myths of the World Creation, Great Mother, Separation of the World Parents, Birth of the Hero, Slaying of the Dragon, Rescue of the Captive, and Transformation and Deification of the Hero. Throughout the sequence, the Hero is the evolving ego consciousness. Featuring a foreword by Jung, this Princeton Classics edition introduces a new generation of readers to this eloquent and enduring work.

(1875-1961) Psiquiatra suizo, pensador influyente y fundador de la psicología analítica (también conocida como psicología junguiana). El enfoque radical de Jung de la psicología ha sido influyente en el campo de la psicología y en los movimientos contraculturales de todo el mundo. Jung es considerado el primer psicólogo moderno que afirma que la psique humana es "por naturaleza religiosa" y en explorarla en profundidad. Sus muchas obras principales incluyen la psicología analítica: su teoría y práctica; el hombre y sus símbolos; los recuerdos, los sueños, las reflexiones; las obras recopiladas de Carl G. Jung; y El Libro Rojo.
