Offers a liberating vision of childhood troubles and an exciting approach to themes such as freedom, and, most of all, calling - that invisible mystery at the centre of every life that voices the fundamental question, 'What is in my heart that I must do, be and have? And why?'

With Jung's Red Book as their point of departure, two leading scholars explore issues relevant to our thinking today.

With 439 excerpts from the writings of C.G. Jung. "This excursion is intended to supplement the main literature on the anima. Since that literature provides a goodly phenomenology of the experience of anima, I shall look here more closely at the rather neglected phenomenology of the notion of anima. Experience and notion affect each other reciprocally. Not only do we derive our notions out of our experiences in accordance with the fantasy of empiricism, but also our notions condition the nature of our experiences." (James Hillman)

World-renowned psychologist Hillman, bestselling author of "The Soul's Code," offers a profound examination of the roots of humanity's unavoidable obsession with war.

Forty-two chapters comprise Hillman's writings on the psychology of public affairs: urbanism, environmental aesthetics, citizenship, and politics.

This furious, trenchant, and audacious series of interrelated dialogues and letters takes a searing look at not only the legacy of psychotherapy, but also practically every aspect of contemporary living--from sexuality to politics, media, the environment, and life in the city. James Hillman--controversial renegade Jungian psychologist, the man Robert Bly has called "the most lively and original psychologist we've had in America since William James"--joins with Michael Ventura--cutting-edge columnist for the L.A. Weekly--to shatter many of our current beliefs about our lives, the psyche, and society. Unrestrained, freewheeling, and brilliant, these two intellectual wild men take chances, break rules, and run red lights to strike at the very core of our shibboleths and perceptions.

A vitally important introduction to the theories of one of the most original thinkers in psychology today, A Blue Fire gathers selected passages from many of Hillman's seminal essays on archetypal psychology.

This groundbreaking classic explores the necessity of making connections between our life and soul and developing the main lines of the soul-making process. Hillman: - argues that modern science wrongly ignores religion- asserts the necessity of spirituality in psychology and the idea of soul-making- argues that modern psychology has wrongly ignored religion, and proposes a new psychology infused with spirituality.- points out that therapy is really soul-making, and psychologists must recognize that the human psyche longs for connection with the immortal.- draws on Greek and Renaissance philosophers as well as the ideas of Freud and especially Jung, in outlining the process of soul-making

"Edited by Robert J. Leaver and introduced by Gail Thomas, City & Soul, Vol. 2 of the Uniform Edition of the Writings of James Hillman, comprises Hillman's writings on the psychology of public affairs: urbanism, environmental aesthetics, citizenship, and politics. The forty-two chapters are divided into four groups: Patient as Citizen, Politics of Beauty, Places of Practice, and Responsive Environmentalism. City & Soul includes delivered lectures on formal occasions, journal articles, transcription of audio tapes, pieces from magazines, and letters to editors. In each case the form defines the voice. Because basic ideas-the importance of mythical and archetypal foundations, anima mundi and animating the soul of the world, the politics of beauty and ugliness, city as nature, community and the common-are central to Hillman's thought, these themes repeat throughout the book, a repetition that is necessary to the integrity of its inspiration"--

Two world-renowned psychologists, Marie-Louise von Franz and James Hillman, give detailed accounts of C.G. Jung's personality types. In her essay, "The Inferior Function," Marie-Louise von Franz shows the inferior shadow side of each of the eight kinds of typical functioning, while James Hillman differentiates in his essay, "The Feeling Function," genuine feeling from look-alikes and substitutes. Both essays are a rich source of ideas for study and an enjoyable guide for self-discovery. Full of psychological insights into personal habits, temperaments, and character.

Have you ever watched and listened to any "science versus religion" debate and wondered if they were arguing from facts or emotions? It could be argued emotions, and this is where I make my case. Please note that I''m not trying to shoot down either side but trying to point some things that could improve their debate.

Acclaimed Jungian James Hillman examines the concepts of myth, insights, eros, body, and the mytheme of female inferiority, as well as the need for the freedom to imagine and to feel psychic reality. Hillman mounts a compelling argument that man's ""peculiarities"" can become an integral part of a rich and fulfilling daily life.
