May 31st, 7:30 pm – Jung’s Red Book Liber Novus: Where Did It Come From and Why Does it Matter?
Presented by George Bright, MA, MSc, DipTheol
Jung first introduced the term ‘archetype’ in London, July 1919 in a paper given to a joint conference of the British Psychological Society, the Aristotelean Society and Mind. His “short history of the archetype” has mistakenly been regarded as an account of from where he derived the concept. We now know, as his audience then did not, that Jung’s concept of archetype derives from his visionary experiences of which Liber Novus and the Black Books are the record. By tracing back the concepts to their origins we can now re-establish Jung’s meaning. In 1928, as the visions recorded in Black Book 7 were drawing to their close, Jung published The Relations Between the Ego and the Unconscious, a major revision of his 1916 conceptual work The Psychology of the Unconscious Processes. The task of this seminar will be to trace back Jung’s conceptual formulations of ‘archetype’ and ‘collective unconscious’ through these early works to their Liber Novus origins in order to establish what Jung meant by these new terms. That done, we are better placed to consider their current use in psychotherapeutic practice.
Learning objectives:
- Describe what meaning Jung intended for his new term “archetype” in the light of a reading of Liber Novus;
- Describe what meaning Jung intended for his new term “the collective unconscious” in the light of a reading of Liber Novus;
- Illustrate how these clarified terms might inform attitudes to life and to the practice of psychotherapy
