Carl Gustav Jung -- A Life Shaped by Women
[ send me this paper ]
Carl Gustav Jung -- A Life Shaped by Women: This 37-page essay details the life experiences of psychoanalyst, Carl Jung and the four women who left lasting impressions on this brilliant, often-tortured man and his work.

Yet, irrespective of his numerous infidelities, to many his ideology offers the promise of wholeness and meaning in a cosmic universe where -- perhaps -- only the mere prospect of salvation exists. Additionally, his relationship to mentor, Sigmund Freud is explored. Bibliography lists 15 sources. SNFemjun.doc

Carl Jung/Autobiography
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page analysis of chapter 4 from Jung's autobiography Memories, Dreams Reflections (1965). Carl Jung refers to this account of his life as "personal myth." He states that he considers it irrelevant as to whether or not the stories he relates are "true," but that he is concerned only with whether or not those stories relate "my fable, my truth" (p. 3). In the fourth chapter of this account, Jung offers a detailed look at his "Psychiatric Activities." However, considering the manner in which Jung introduces his account of his life, one has to question his intent in his summation of case studies, as his stated purpose is to relate details about himself. Therefore, this examination of chapter IV of Jung's book looks at the symbolic nature of these cases and what they inform the reader about Carl Jung. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
