Edward F. Edinger Reihenfolge der Bücher

Významný americký psycholog hledá odpověď na otázku zda má řecká mytologie co říci současnému člověku. Vychází přitom z předpokladu, že každá mytologie je sebevyjádřením hlubinných úrovní lidské duše. V mýtech se setkáváme se specifickými formami a obrazy, jejichž prostřednictvím můžeme pochopit skutečnosti tvořící základ všech psychických zkušeností moderního člověka. Mýty nejsou podle Edingera pouhými vyprávěními o událostech, jež se odehrály v dávné minulosti; jsou to věčná dramata, která se stále, znovu a znovu, prolínají našimi životy i vším, co kolem sebe vidíme.

The Biblical Psalms are the great treasury of Judeo-Christian spirituality. Yahweh dwells within them. Psychologically, this means that the living presence of the Self animates the Psalms, which therefore have the power to constellate the archetype of the God-image in those individuals who are receptive to their influence. Even many self-professed irreligious people have been astonished to discover that certain Psalms were the only texts that spoke to their condition during a period of grave psychic upheaval. Today, traditional Judeo-Christianity is at a crucial turning point. But the poetry of the Psalms still rewards the effort to understand and relate their message to individual, contemporary, psychological experience. Originally a lecture series, The Sacred Psyche resonates with Dr. Edinger's heartfelt, deeply honest responses to these powerful texts.

Podtitul: Jungiánský komentář k ilustracím Williama Blakea ke Knize Jóbově Edward F. Edinger (1918 – 1988) byl známým interpretem a glosátorem Jungova díla, znalcem světové literatury a autorem řady knih s hlubinně-psychologickou tematikou.Edingerovo „Setkání s bytostným Já“ je psychologickým komentářem obrazového cyklu Williama Blakea, známého jako „Ilustrace ke Knize Jóbově“. Edinger interpretuje Blakeovo dílo jako grafické vyjádření procesu sebeuvědomění Boha, respektive procesu proměny starozákonního žárlivého a panovačného Jahva v milujícího Boha Nového zákona – tedy procesu individuace západního lidstva. Při svém výkladu vychází Edinger zejména z Jungova díla „Odpověď na Jóba“ (Výbor z díla C. G. Junga, sv. IV, Obraz člověka a obraz Boha).

From Isaiah to Malachi, this text is a psychological commentary on Old Testament prophecies, the details of which can be perceived as a dialogue between the Self and the developing ego. This discussion is a continuation of Dr Edinger's detailed exegesis begun in The Bible and the Psyche.

Title #71. Jung's Aion laid the foundation for a whole new scholarly discipline that could be called archetypal psychohistory. It applies the insights of depth psychology to the analysis of cultural development, here focusing on the idea of the God-image, or Self, as it has evolved over 2,000 years of Western thinking.

A medical psychiatrist and founding member of the Jung Foundation explores a pivotal part of analytical psychology: encountering the self through individuation This book is about the individual’s journey to psychological wholeness, known in analytical psychology as the process of individuation. Edward Edinger traces the stages in this process and relates them to the search for meaning through encounters with symbolism in religion, myth, dreams, and art. For contemporary men and women, Edinger believes, the encounter with the self is equivalent to the discovery of God. The result of the dialogue between the ego and the archetypal image of God is an experience that dramatically changes the individual’s worldview and makes possible a new and more meaningful way of life.
