Böcker av James Hillman

Offers a liberating vision of childhood troubles and an exciting approach to themes such as freedom, and, most of all, calling - that invisible mystery at the centre of every life that voices the fundamental question, 'What is in my heart that I must do, be and have? And why?'

With Jung's Red Book as their point of departure, two leading scholars explore issues relevant to our thinking today.

"Edited by Robert J. Leaver and introduced by Gail Thomas, City & Soul, Vol. 2 of the Uniform Edition of the Writings of James Hillman, comprises Hillman's writings on the psychology of public affairs: urbanism, environmental aesthetics, citizenship, and politics. The forty-two chapters are divided into four groups: Patient as Citizen, Politics of Beauty, Places of Practice, and Responsive Environmentalism. City & Soul includes delivered lectures on formal occasions, journal articles, transcription of audio tapes, pieces from magazines, and letters to editors. In each case the form defines the voice. Because basic ideas-the importance of mythical and archetypal foundations, anima mundi and animating the soul of the world, the politics of beauty and ugliness, city as nature, community and the common-are central to Hillman's thought, these themes repeat throughout the book, a repetition that is necessary to the integrity of its inspiration"--

Two world-renowned psychologists, Marie-Louise von Franz and James Hillman, give detailed accounts of C.G. Jung's personality types. In her essay, "The Inferior Function," Marie-Louise von Franz shows the inferior shadow side of each of the eight kinds of typical functioning, while James Hillman differentiates in his essay, "The Feeling Function," genuine feeling from look-alikes and substitutes. Both essays are a rich source of ideas for study and an enjoyable guide for self-discovery. Full of psychological insights into personal habits, temperaments, and character.

Have you ever watched and listened to any "science versus religion" debate and wondered if they were arguing from facts or emotions? It could be argued emotions, and this is where I make my case. Please note that I''m not trying to shoot down either side but trying to point some things that could improve their debate.

James Hillman is one of the leading figures in archetypal psychology. This anthology presents carefully selected passages from many of his seminal essays, and work on archetypal psychology.
