Archetypes And The Collective Uncoscious, The

Description:
The concept of 'archetypes' and the hypothesis of 'a collective unconscious' are two of Jung's better known ideas. In this volume, taken from the 'Collected Works', Jung describes and elaborates the two concepts. Three essays establish the theoretical basis, followed by essays on specific archetypes. The relation of these to the process of individualization is examined in the last section of the book.
