Our series focusing on the Collected Works continues with a collection of essays described by Jung's editors as speaking directly to "the dynamics of the 'spirit archetype' ..." as the "source of scientific and artistic creativity in archetypal structures." Jung defined spirit as our remarkable ability to generate spontaneous images as evidence of the living psyche. These essays examine both creativity and creative personalities.

This class is useful for anyone wishing to deepen their understanding of Jung's work in a group setting and is appropriate for novice and expert alike. Reading the essays prior to class is required.
