Jung's RED BOOK discussion @The Jung Center

NOTE: *After speaking with Matthew (head librarian at the KML), we decided to begin our reading and discussion of the Red Book earlier.* Starting time: 6 pm. Jung’s *The Red Book*: Reading and Discussion Group UPDATED: Reading assignment for 1st meetup at the Kristine Mann Library. From Liber Primus: Prologue and chapters 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 (pp.117-156). *I will be reading from A Reader's Edition (see below)* This meetup is devoted to the careful reading and discussion of C. G. Jung’s extraordinary The Red Book (*Liber Novus*), one of the most important and fascinating works in the history of depth psychology. *(note: reading is required for participation. You may attend if you do not read, yet only listen).* The Red Book emerged from a period of profound psychological and spiritual confrontation with the unconscious that began after Jung’s break with Freud. Before creating The Red Book*, Jung recorded many of his dreams, visions, fantasies, and inner dialogues in a series of notebooks now known as The Black Books *(1913-1916)*. These notebooks served as the more immediate and spontaneous record of his encounters with the unconscious.
