Psicología del Inconsciente

Descripción

From the Publisher psychology of the Unconscious In Psychology of the Unconscious, Jung seeks a symbolic meaning and purpose behind a given set of symptoms, placing them within the larger context of the psyche. The 1912 text examines the fantasies of a patient whose poetic and vivid mental images helped Jung redefine libido as psychic energy, arising from the unconscious and manifesting itself consciously in symbolic form. Jung's commentary on his patient's fantasies offers a complex study of symbolic psychiatry and foreshadows his development of the theory of the collective unconscious and its constituents, the archetypes. WHO IS CARL GUSTAV JUNG? Carl Gustav Jung, Swiss psychologist and founder of Analytic Psychology, was a close collaborator of Sigmund Freud.Jung rejected Sigmund Freud's psychoanalysis of childhood neuroses and sensuality, publishing his own landmark psychoanalytic method as Psychology of the Unconscious in 1912.He redefined psychotherapy as a study of present conflicts versus childhood conflicts and influences. Jung proposed the theory of sensuality as a series of images, patterns, and symbols linking the human body and psyche, instinct, and image, shaped as fantasies derived from mythology, religion, ethnology, art, literature, and psychiatry. He defined the original concept of the collective unconscious––the conscious mind is genetically inherited, shared by other members of a culture, or universally by all human beings.Jung proposed the role of archetypes as influences on human behavior and introduced the personality traits of introversion and extroversion.
