Jung the Philosopher: Essays in Jungian Thought (New Studies in Aesthetics) [signed] [first edition]

Among C.G. Jung's vast works, the author finds answers to speculative questions in contemporary philosophy. Taking his thought beyond the healing metaphor, with which Jung is usually associated as a psychotherapist, Pauson presents Jung's manyfaceted myth of meaning as a vital contender in the contemporary arena of philosophical ideas. As a creative thinker open to the irrational facts of experience, Jung employed a variety of methods and crossed the boundaries of many disciplines. His contribution to speculative thought extends to the areas of epistemology, metaphysics, aesthetics, education, religion, the problem of evil, and the question of life after death.
