C.G. Jung, Seven Sermons to the Dead,
Ann T. Johnston, Coming Home to Ourselves,
(worth reading, but can’t find the link anymore).
Julia Vaughn Smith, Traumatized Psyche,
Connie Zweig and Jeremiah Abrams, Meeting the Shadow,
In my view, the contributions by Peck, Guggenbuhl-Craig, Kopp, Pierrakos, Whitmont and Wilbur, among the ones I’ve read, contain serious flaws. There’s a short excerpt from a text by Rollo May that seems innocuous, but his other texts do reveal very serious problems. Critical comments may appear in the future for each. But since Whitmont’s contribution seems to be the most treacherous, to see this more clearly it will help to also read “The Destiny Concept in Psychotherapy” (also by him), which contains its own red flags, especially when juxtaposed with Glen Slater’s “A Mythology of Bullets,” and if we take into consideration the fact that the creative potential in us does not have a masculine character. Finally, the fact that the boot camp mentality and other problems are subtly evidencing themselves in the volume edited by Z & A does not make it less hard to perceive the man as a Jungian analyst, even if there are merits in some of his ideas and analyses.
