The authoritative edition of sixteen of Jung's studies on the psychology of religious phenomena, including Aion and Psychology and Alchemy
This volume collects Jung's shorter writings on religion and psychology, including several that are of major importance, as well as two full-length works on the subject, Aion and Psychology and Alchemy. Together, these writings present Jung's significant statement on a vital theme.
The shorter pieces on Western religion are: Psychology and Religion • A Psychological Approach to the Dogma of the Trinity • Transformation Symbolism in the Mass • Forewords to White's God and the Unconscious and Werblowsky's Lucifer and Prometheus • Brother Klaus • Psychotherapists or the Clergy • Psychoanalysis and the Cure of Souls • Answer to Job
The shorter pieces on Eastern religion are: Psychological Commentaries on The Tibetan Book of the Great Liberation and The Tibetan Book of the Dead • Yoga and the West • Foreword to Suzuki's Introduction to Zen Buddhism • The Psychology of Eastern Meditation • The Holy Men of India • Foreword to the I Ching "Nowhere else than in this study of the interplay of East and West is the point so forcefully made that man's cultural past somehow molds his feelings and thinking as well as his highly contrasting attitudes toward reality."
