Yes, but he's exist tier so he could fuck up your entire appreciation of philosophy if you read him too early or apply his framework to philosophy.

Here's the chart OP. Anyway I never read anything about him but I'd like to read "man and his simbols", I love all of this symbolism/esoteric stuff. Have you guys read it? How is it?

Jewish science.

Study something real like Math

>>15857895
Just replace man and his symbols with modern man in search for a soul; only people who haven't read Jung advise reading man. But it wouldn't hurt to read the first chapter.

Other than that it's missing quite a few other works and is lacking in extra information, but apart from these it's fine.

Is Heidegger's phenomenology jewish as well?

What's the problem with man and his symbols? Reading it rn, seems like a decent shallow take till now. Never read Jung before.

>man and his symbols
It's very simplistic and doesn't go into any of the actual philosophical foregrounding or direction of Jung, it's trying to be scientific.

As I said, you should read the first chapter but everything after that is optional, but I guess it may help.

>> No.15858174

>>15856144
you know those posters on /lit/ that display an extremely broad and wide array of knowledge but lack any sort of insight to meaningfully connect those ideas so you get gems such as "This is like the Nietzschean Will to Power gleamed through the eyes of the Hegelian Dialectic in the ideal Platonic Form"? Jung is sort of like that.

>> No.15858183

Reading Jung will not be a waste of time whether you like it or not.

>> No.15858189

>>15858174
I don't think Jung is like that, I just think it's the result of one operating within the given psychological framework of Jung that isn't actually talking about the ideas, hence so many people that read Jung end up talking like this. But Jung himself understood the grounding to his psychology, and the phenomenological reality, whereas most don't and just get lost in the symbols everywhere ignoring any actual phenomenology.

Why frame it along this false binary? Psychology is much more than Jung, or Freud, or Skinner for that matter.

>> No.15858489

Psychology is a meme but Jung was a doctor of the soul.

Read philosophy.
Any philosophy which was released post 1860 is shit and you should ignore it.
