Anthology of Contemporary Theoretical Classics in Analytical Psychology
The New Ancestors
About This Book
2022 Gradiva Award nominee for Best Edited Book!
This anthology of contemporary classics in analytical psychology bring together academic, scholarly and clinical writings by contributors who constitute the "post-Jungian" generation.
Carpani brings together important contributions from the Jungian world to establish the "new ancestors" in this field, in order to serve future generations of Jungian analysts, scholars, historians and students. This generation of clinicians and scholars has shaped the contemporary Jungian landscape, and their work continues to inspire discussions on key topics including archetypes, race, gender, trauma and complexes. Each contributor has selected a piece of their work which they feel best represents their research and clinical interests, each aiding the expansion of current discussions on Jung and contemporary analytical psychology studies.
Spanning two volumes, which are also accessible as standalone books, this essential collection will be of interest to Jungian analysts and therapists, as well as toacademics and students of Jungian and post-Jungian studies.

Chapter 1
no hope, because he is disillusioned by the world ⊠no love, but only sexuality; no faith, because he is afraid to grope in the dark; [and] ⊠no understanding, because he has failed to read the meaning of his own existence.â66Jung Vol. 11, §499.
I saw myself, not with the eyes of the body, but those of the spirit [nicht mit den Augen des Leibes, sondern des Geistes], coming toward myself on horseback on the same path, and, to be sure, in clothing I had never worn: it was bluish grey with some gold trimming. As soon as I shook myself awake from this dream, the figure vanished.(GE 4, 370)
just as your sensuous eye is a prism, in which the ether of the sensuous world, which is in itself quite self-identical, pure, and colourless, breaks into manifold colours on the surface of things [⊠. ] so proceed likewise in matters of the spiritual world, and from the view of your spiritual eyeâ.2
