Prior to this work, Freud's examination of the forces that drive people focused primarily on the sexual drive, or Eros of man, the life instinct to reproduce that is innate in all humans. Freud had attributed most of human behavior to the seeking of sexual pleasure. In reasoned progression...

Cuando Freud analizó la naturaleza del vínculo social entre los seres hablantes, especialmente en su "Psicología de las masas y análisis del yo", tomó prestada del filósofo Arthur Schopenhauer una fábula conocida como "El dilema del erizo", "En un crudo día invernal, los puercoespines de una manada se apretaron unos contra otros para prestarse mutuo calor. Pero al hacerlo así se hirieron recíprocamente con sus púas y hubieron de separarse.

Arnold Richards's psychoanalytic contributions follow the leitmotif of "integrative pluralism": how to continue the dialogue between the contributors of disparate psychoanalytic schools of thought (i.e., thought collectives) with the larger psychoanalytic knowledge base as it grows and changes with each new contribution. The chapters of the first section of this book show us the evolution of this design.

James L. Jarrett is Professor of the Philosophy of Education at the University of California, Berkeley.
Nietzsche's infamous work Thus Spake Zarathustra is filled with a strange sense of religiosity that seems to run counter to the philosopher's usual polemics against religious faith. For some scholars, this book marks little but a mental decline in the great philosopher; for C. G. Jung, Zarathustra was an invaluable demonstration of the unconscious...

Reyes y generales victoriosos quisieron dejar testimonio de sus vidas equiparando sus acciones heroicas con las de los dioses. No es extraño que hayan sido considerados como tales por sus vasallos;...

El recorrido de un análisis supone la profunda transformación de un sujeto. Más allá del levantamiento de los síntomas, es el ser mismo el que está en juego. El clima de indeterminación con que nos encontramos al principio se desplazará para dar lugar a lo que podríamos llamar "certeza de vivir". Una vida que se vive y que se aleja del verse vivir.
El obstáculo que siempre encontraremos, del lado de los analistas y también en el de los...

Aion, originally published in German in 1951, is one of the major works of Jung's later years. The central theme of the volume is the symbolic representation of the psychic totality through the concept of the Self, whose traditional historical equivalent is the figure of Christ. Jung demonstrates his thesis by an investigation of the Allegoria Christi, especially the fish symbol, but also of Gnostic and alchemical symbolism, which he treats as phenomena...
