Preface
To give a comprehensive account of Jung and his Psychology (commonly
referred to as analytical psychology to distinguish it from Freud’s
psychoanalysis and from experimental psychology, the pure science of the
academics) in a slim volume of 165 pages is a tall order. Jung was both a
polymath and prolific writer: in addition to psychology, psychiatry, and
medicine, he had an encyclopaedic knowledge of mythology, religion,
philosophy, gnosticism, and alchemy, knew English, French, Latin, and
Greek, as well as his native German, and was at home in the literature of
each. Although he carried this massive erudition with a cheerful lack of
pomposity, it is evident in everything he wrote, and since he was not good
at organizing his material, The Collected Works of C. G. Jung in twenty
large volumes afford a daunting prospect to the uninitiated reader.
Jung recognized his failings as a communicator (‘Nobody reads my books’,
he said, and ‘I have such a hell of a trouble to make people see what I
mean’), but this awareness did not prompt him to revise his work in the
same systematic way as Freud. Consequently, much time and labour are
required to understand Jung from his original papers and books, and while
there can be no escape from the effort involved if one wishes to stake one’s
claim to a portion of Jung’s rich legacy, the task can be made less arduous
by a concise introduction of the type this small book is meant to provide.
