Basic Jungian Concepts

online course

Essex is a leading member of a small handful of universities in the world that provides cutting-edge expertise in Jungian and post-Jungian theory and applications.

This course will concentrate on Jung’s model of the psyche, with special attention paid to the definitive concepts differentiating analytical psychology from psychoanalysis: the collective unconscious, archetypes, complexes, psychological types, individuation, the Self, and synchronicity. We will also explore Jung’s evaluation of, and writings related to, the arts, religion, psychotherapy, and society. Most seminars will concentrate on one or two primary texts, which will be presented by our lecturers and examined in detail with participants via real-time discussions.
