<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Until now, the single most important unpublished work by C.G. Jung--<em>The Black Books</em>.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In 1913, C.G. Jung started a unique self- experiment that he called his "confrontation with the unconscious" an engagement with his fantasies in a waking state, which he charted in a series of notebooks referred to as <em>The Black Books</em>. These intimate writings shed light on the further elaboration of Jung's personal cosmology and his attempts to embody insights from his self- investigation into his life and personal relationships. <em>The Red Book</em> drew on material recorded from 1913 to 1916, but Jung actively kept the notebooks for many more decades.</p><p>Presented in a magnificent, seven-volume boxed collection featuring a revelatory essay by noted Jung scholar Sonu Shamdasani--illuminated by a selection of Jung's vibrant visual works--and both translated and facsimile versions of each notebook, <em>The Black Books</em> offer a unique portal into Jung's mind and the origins of analytical psychology.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>[<em>The Black Books</em>] represent the coalface of Jung's introspection, from which he mined and polished his more accessible <em>Red Book</em>.... <em>The Black Books</em> detail Jung's visionary encounters with entities such as Phanes the star god, Ha the sorcerer, and Philemon, the wise magician who became Jung's internal guru.--Phil Baker "Times Literary Supplement"<br>
