Synopsis "the undiscovered self,with symbols and the interpretation of dreams (in English)"

These two essays, written late in Jung's life, reflect his responses to the shattering experience of World War II and the dawn of mass society. Among his most influential works, "The Undiscovered Self" is a plea for his generation--and those to come--to continue the individual work of self-discovery and not abandon needed psychological reflection for the easy ephemera of mass culture. Only individual awareness of both the conscious and unconscious aspects of the human psyche, Jung tells us, will allow the great work of human culture to continue and thrive. Jung's reflections on self-knowledge and the exploration of the unconscious carry over into the second essay, "Symbols and the Interpretation of Dreams," completed shortly before his death in 1961. Describing dreams as communications from the unconscious, Jung explains how the symbols that occur in dreams compensate for repressed emotions and intuitions. This essay brings together Jung's fully evolved thoughts on the analysis of dreams and the healing of the rift between consciousness and the unconscious, ideas that are central to his system of psychology. This paperback edition of Jung's classic work includes a new foreword by Sonu Shamdasani, Philemon Professor of Jung History at University College London.

(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.
