Rendition During Books The Red Book: Liber Novus
When Carl Jung embarked on an extended self-exploration he called it his “confrontation with the unconscious,” the heart of it was The Red Book, a large, illuminated volume he created between 1914 and 1930. Here he developed his principle theories—of the archetypes, the collective unconscious, and the process of individuation—that transformed psychotherapy from a practice concerned with treatment of the sick into a means for higher development of the personality.While Jung considered The Red Book to be his most important work, only a handful of people have ever seen it. Now, in a complete facsimile and translation, it is available to scholars and the general public. It is an astonishing example of calligraphy and art on a par with The Book of Kells and the illuminated manuscripts of William Blake. This publication of The Red Book is a watershed that will cast new light on the making of modern psychology.

What dead souls lie under your sunken tired eyes? What true selves have you let die within yourself? -Carl Jung Ill bring this book with me in my heart for the rest of my life. Some of the time I think I needed to be able to read Jung's mind, but eventually the bits that came together were lovely. This book, by carl jung is about his own journey through depression while trying to treat himself, and hover over his own psychosis without letting it take over his mind completely. What a gift to beThis revelatory journey, replete with symbols, was a pleasure and an experience to read, especially alongside the the calligraphic volume.This work is seminal of so much of Jung's work, as he had to work through it himself. I found myself experiencing through word many things I have thought and felt from within my own self, and so it was an enlightening journey as well.Whether a reader of Jung or not, this text is a wonderful, though at times painful, experience of many primal internal images
So profound, so magical.
"All the works of man have their origin in creative fantasy. What right have we then to depreciate imagination." CG JUNGBeautiful Beautiful book. Jung was truly a talented man, who was and is respected in his field. Some people have left negative reviews regarding the packaging. It is a big big book, but It needs to be to show the plates that is Jungs own handwriting. I wouldn't have it any other way. In saying that tho it is awkward. Maybe the publishers should have included a smaller book with
Oh!The secret in this book.>>Amazing and deeply inspiring
Yes, for us Carl Jung fans this book is the Grail, but really it is kind of a let down. Aesthetically this book is the revelation all of us hoped it would be. The paper, the typography, the reproductions are scrumptious. (Yes, I ate them.) But there is a little bit of the presentation that leaves me head scratching. There is sort of this "introduction to Carl Jung," section and I think to myself, why would anyone interested in this book need an introduction to Carl Jung? And let's be serious:
