Jung stated that the modern art which can still be called such, and not drifted into absurdity, must be understood psychologically and not artistically.

Not much more to be said.

Jung talked about in one of his 1933 lectures that the religious man necessarily sees himself within the extroverted symbol of Religion causing no need of a "psychology". And so the focus upon the mind, or the unit of experience/the explanation of natural phenomena, can only be a modern creation. An historic necessity to be sure, but how we will progress past this stupid separation is unknown to me. I've always felt a new Logos must be birthed, from tradition and postmodernity(being the ideological daughter of modernity). Our obsession of how things are in themselves will lead us forth to the next stage of history.

Obviously Jung anon, probably Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious, then the actual Alchemical works: Psychology and Alchemy, Alchemical Studies, Mysterium Coniunctionis (which is one of his big works). In that order. And of course after reading most of Jung's works in chronological order since Psychology of the Unconscious (beginning with Modern Man in search of a Soul and a History of Psychology: Jung Lectures before that) like his famous book on types, of course Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious, and say his book Essays on Contemporary Events, Aion, obviously his Alchemical writings and all that you can read his Red Book: Liber Novus.

His entire psychology revolves around duality of course but those three Alchemical treatise are what you are looking for.

He degenerates Jung's Aryan and mystic Analytical Psychology into modernly scientific Jewish individualism. Jung literally wrote on race memory and the Aryan archetype, a difference of (and inferiority of) psyche between the Aryan and Jew, Hitler as the embodiment of the German race, the hierarchical nature of existence and so forth. Peterson rejects all of this in stead of "muh individual". And on top of all that he just says a bunch of badly put together words as an answer to simple questions. A hypocrite with ulterior motives. A pseud but a pseud that has done more good in this world than none still.

Jung's archetypes were not just simply a high development of instinct(and should not be understood as such) even if this is the easiest way to explain them to most. The Archetypes are impressions of temporality, they are both the structure and content of the psyche, not mere functions. And the true ideal of the archetypes can only be known in the form of the highest complexity itself hence oft their depiction of man himself; yet entirely of something other.

Repression being the unconscious submersion of psychic content away from ego consciousness (Suppression being instead the conscious submersion) caused by collectively inherited patterns chiefly the shadow, acting both as cause of this process, as well as the archetypal formation of itself to the individual by this process. Be sure not to mix sexual release as a response to an array of psychic disturbances rather than the sexuality in itself being both the cause and response.

Who doesn't like Jung?

Jung spoiled Faust for me, specifically what Gretchen does.

Thanks Carl.

What does /lit/ think of Carl Jung?

Been trying to read him, but he's quite hard to follow.
