Sinopsis

Aion, a major work from Jung&rsquo,s later years, has long been a source of fascination for a wide variety of scholars and thinkers. Presented here are two substantial commentaries concerning this rich and complex text by two important figures in Jung&rsquo,s life and work: Barbara Hannah and Marie-Louise von Franz.á This is the first volume in a series edited by Emmanuel Kennedy-Xypolitas, &ldquo,Polarities in the Psyche,&rdquo, focusing on the broad theme of the opposites in the psyche. The next volume is &ldquo,The Archetypal Symbolism of Animals.&rdquo,Hannah delivered these lectures at the C. G. Jung Institute in Zürich in 1957. Over the course of the lectures, she addresses each chapter of Aion, providing detail and in-depth analysis for selected passages and offering the reader suggestions for further sources and study. Well-paced and thoughtfully planned, she scans the work from beginning to end, bringing many subtle nuances to light.In a private interview with Claude Drey conducted in her home in the spring of 1965, Marie-Louise von Franz takes a close look at chapter fourteen of Aion, &ldquo,The Structure and Dynamics of the Self.&rdquo, Published here for the first time, she offers a lively and free-flowing discussion of key sentences in the work.
