Man and His Symbols

Book • 2023

Author

Marie-Louise von Franz

This book is an introduction to Carl Jung's work and ideas, particularly his theory of the unconscious and its role in human psychology.

It emphasizes the importance of dreams and symbols in understanding the unconscious mind.

The book is divided into five parts, each written by Jung or his closest associates, and includes chapters on approaching the unconscious, primitive myths, the process of individuation, symbolism in art, and symbols in individual analysis.

Jung's concept of individuation, where the conscious and unconscious minds learn to live in harmony, is a central theme.

The book is richly illustrated and provides insights into how symbols in dreams reflect and influence our lives.
