Angeliki Yiassemides

Time and Timelessness

Temporality in the theory of Carl Jung

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines the development of Jung's understanding of time throughout his research, and the ways in which this concept has affected key elements of his theory. By exploring the differences between the work of Freud and Jung concerning time, and addressing inconsistencies found in Freud's work, an exploration of Jung's time theory is offered which provides a model greatly surpassing Freud's dichotomous approach.

Rezensionen

'This book is long overdue. Today it is more than welcome. And it is more than useful. It is precious. By the questions the book poses, and by the questions which arise through the work of the author.We will return.'- Christian Gaillard, Cahiers Jungiens de Psychanalyse

'In summary, this is an engaging book that brings out a crucial dimension of Jung's theories. Viewing the evolution of his thinking from the perspective of temporality is a rich experience. The writing is clear and, considering the complexity of the topic, the ideas are approachable. Overall it is a stimulating and worthwhile work, and I would definitely recommend it to those who want to gain a new perspective on Jung's basic ideas, as well as those who are particularly interested in temporality and its intriguing vicissitudes.'- Ladson Hinton, Society of Jungian Analysts of Northern California, Journal of Analytical Psychology
