Psychology of the Unconscious

In 'Psychology of the Unconscious', Carl Jung breaks away from traditional psychoanalytic methods by examining dreams, mythology, and literature to understand universal patterns of the psyche.

The book redefines libido as psychic energy and introduces the concept of the collective unconscious and archetypes, laying the groundwork for analytical psychology.

Jung's analysis of a patient's fantasies provides insight into symbolic psychiatry and foreshadows his later theories.
