Review: Fascinating insight into the life and mind of the man - When I first began my exploration into Carl Jung's ideas, I started with a Jung introduction written by another author. Realizing that was getting me nowhere, I went straight for the horse's mouth, and bought Jung's autobiography. One of the best literary decisions I've ever made. This book is one of the most fascinating things I've ever read, and is worth ten Jung introductions. In it, we get to experience and see the world through Jung's eyes. Jung had a beautiful way of expressing himself, so that much of his prose reads like poetry. He does an excellent job of trying to communicate through those completely uselss things we call words the inner reality of the human experience. Jung refers many times to his ability to see a world that apparently other people couldn't see. He does an amazing job of helping the reader to see what he saw, even at the expense of his own ego. When he was young he fancied himself a bit touched, and I have to admit that after reading the kinds of things that went through his mind as a boy that I thought he must have been at least half insane. His experience with "the will of god" in particular left me shaking my head, thinking, "And we've based our knowledge of psychology on this guy?" I think when he was a boy Jung was indeed a little crazy, and maybe it was that slightly off-kilter mindset that allowed him to become such an excellent psychotherapist. He steadied out as he got older, and thankfully stopped having dramatic visions of god doing disgusting things. Jung also provides some excellent insight into the character and mind of Freud. Freud too was a little nuts, and Jung makes no bones about showing us this. He reinforces the notion that everything should be taken with a grain of salt, even the most revered ideas of the world's greatest thinkers. Truth changes, and is relative to the environment in which it is perceived. My only criticism of the book stems from Jung's musings after he has detailed his relationship with Freud and other aspects of his academic career. He enteres a stage of his life in which he decides to "confront his unconscious," i.e., to study it himself in as great a detail as possible. Here, Jung fades into a dreamy, imprecise rambling about what he calls his "fantasies." Jung never explains exaclty what he means by "fantasies." Is he talking about dream material, or waking reveries? Or is he referring to the mysterious "visions" that plague him from time to time? He doesn't elaborate. But he goes on for what seems like fifty pages at least simply rambling about nothing. He stops giving detailed examples as he did earlier in the book and loses himself in a kind of drug-induced reverie that leaves the reader standing out in the rain. I simplly did not know what he was talking about at this point in the book, and Jung should have done a better job at elucidating what kinds of things he was engaged in at this point of this life. Nevertheless, I would highly recommend this autobiography to anyone interested in Jung. Some small knowledge of psychological theories will help you out, but there's always a dictionary and wiki if you don't have that.
Review: Worth reading for the insights - In a series of interviews later in life, Jung was lengthily interviewed about his life and the story of how he came to his own philosophies of psychological well-being. This book is a Jung-authorized compilation into a long book that reads something like an autobiography, meaning it’s easier to read than some of his more theoretical writings because it’s narrative and story-like. We read here about his childhood imagination, his youthful disillusionments and inspirations that were a foundation for his later development. He tells his stories retrospectively from old age, so we also learn what Jung thought was important to describe. He tells of his break with Freud, what led to it and the pain of removing himself from Freud’s mentorship and personal circle. It’s all very interesting: sad, dark, joyful, strange and intensely human. Not an entirely an easy read, but worth it for the dedicated and sensitive reader interested in Jung’s thoughts and what led to them.
