Description: Although the works of C. G. Jung have received worldwide attention there has been surprisingly little engagement by philosophers. In this volume internationally recognized philosophers Jungian analysts and scholars attempt to fill this void in the literature. Although Jung did not have a formalized systematic philosophy the philosophical implications of his thought are explored in relation to his key theoretical postulates on archetypes the collective unconscious the mind - body problem phenomenology epistemology psychology of religion alchemy myth ethics aesthetics and the question of transcendence. Through analyzing Jung philosophically new vistas emerge for enhanced explication theoretical refinement revision and redirecting shifts in emphasis that lend more proper cohesion to Jung's philosophy. For the first time we may observe philosophers attempting to unpack the philosophical consequences of Jung's thought applied to many traditional topics covered in the humanities and the social sciences. Given that Jung has not been historically taken up by philosophers critiqued nor applied to contemporary theories of mind culture and human nature this is the first book of its kind. It is argued that a new generation of research in analytical psychology can benefit from philosophical scrutiny and theoretical fortification. Jung and Philosophy will be of interest to psychoanalysts philosophers cultural theorists religious scholars and the disciplines of depth psychology and post - Jungian studies.
