Böcker av Stein Murray Stein

A expressão principium individuationis, na psicologia junguiana, é a tendência humana inata a nos tornar distintos e integrados ¿ em síntese, trata-se de tomarmos consciência de nosso propósito. Nesta exposição concisa e contemporânea do processo de individuação, Murray Stein apresenta as percepções psicológicas expostas nas obras de Carl Jung em mitos e contos de fada, oferecendo uma descrição bastante clara e lúcida desse processo dinâmico e permanente. Como movimento orientado ao desenvolvimento da consciência humana em indivíduos, tradições culturais e no âmbito internacional, a compreensão do princípio de individuação assume importância cada vez maior. Por isso, o autor sugere novas perspectivas, tanto em nível pessoal como coletivo, que permitem nos libertar da compulsão à repetição incessante de padrões disfuncionais que nos condicionam no caótico mundo contemporâneo.

Dr. Murray Stein's prolific career has produced a substantial body of writings, lectures, and interviews. His writings, captured in these volumes, span a wide domain of topics including Christianity, individuation, midlife, the practice of analytical psychology, and topics in contemporary society. His deep understanding of analytical psychology is much more than an academic discourse, but rather a deeply personal study of Jung that spans nearly half a century.Transformation suggests a profound change in someone's life, often of a psychological or spiritual nature. It is the emergence of the Self-Imago through individuation. In Volume 3, Dr. Stein examines this developmental process on a personal as well as a cultural level. Great works of transformation are explored, including those of Rembrandt, Picasso, Dante, and Jung. One's life arc of transformation through the entire life cycle is scrutinized, particularly in the psychological transformation of men. Even the God Image transforms over time and can lead to profound meaning in our journey. The volume concludes with an exploration of Dante's Divine Comedy and the alchemical transformations found within.TA B L E O F CO N T E N T STransformation: Emergence of the Self Introduction Prologue 1.
