Résumé

Freud's 'crown prince', Carl Gustav Jung eventually abandoned Freud's theory to form his own. As Freud's influence has waned, Jung's ideas have gained currency. This biography considers his life and ideas, exploring the accusations of anti-Semitism and misogyny by examining his own writings.

Jung Résumé

Jung Deirdre Bair

Jung abandoned Freud's theory to found his own system of Analytical psychology. As Freud's influence has waned over the years, Jung's ideas - the collective unconscious, the archetypal myths underpinning all societies, synchronocity, "new age" spirituality & much more - have achieved an overwhelming ascendancy. Bair addresses the myths about Jung - accusations that he was an anti- Semite and a misogynist and that he falsified data - with evidence from his own writings & from those of his colleagues & former patients. The result is groundbreaking & accessible.

Jung Avis

Another biography of Carl Jung, renegade shrink. Like Freud, he has attracted an astonishing number of biographers, so what each new version must do from the outset is establish its special credentials. Why more? After all, it's always the same life. But Deirdre Bair has previously delivered impressive biographical treatments of Samuel Beckett, Simone de Beauvoir and Ana s Nin, all marked by painstaking investigation and scrupulous treatment of sources. So this aspires to be the definitive life, and it will be, until the next one comes along. But so thorough is the Bair version (640 pages), with unprecedented access to diaries and letters, that the Jung industry seems bound to slip into recession for a while, the market swamped with new product. Sure to be respectfully reviewed.
