In the autumn of 1912, C. G. Jung, then president of the International
Psychoanalytic Association, set out his critique and reformulation of
the theory of psychoanalysis in a series of lectures in New York,
ideas that were to prove unacceptable to Freud, thus creating a schism
in the Freudian school. Jung challenged Freud's understandings of
sexuality, the origins of neuroses, dream interpretation, and the
unconscious, and Jung also became the first to argue that every
analyst should themselves be analyzed. Seen in the light of the
subsequent reception and development of psychoanalysis, Jung's
critiques appear to be strikingly prescient, while also laying the
basis for his own school of analytical psychology. This volume of
Jung's lectures includes an introduction by Sonu Shamdasani, Philemon
Professor of Jung History at University College London, and editor of
Jung's Red Book.
