Young Carl Jung

<p><em>The Jung Cult</em> received great attention for its revisionist opinions about C.G. Jung and the origins of depth psychology. <em>Young Carl Jung</em> offers a more balanced view with rare glimpses into Carl Jung’s formative years.</p><p>In a masterful telling of Jung’s childhood Brockway provides a clear perspective on the impact young Carl’s experiences played in forming his later theories. Jung himself attributed his discovery of the collective unconscious to early childhood experiences beginning with a particularly vivid dream.</p><p>From Brockway’s on-site research in Switzerland to his analysis of Jung’s octogenarian biography <em>Memories Dreams Reflections</em> the historical geographical and intellectual influences that also impacted Jung are woven into this engrossing picture of his ancestry birth and school years.</p><p><strong>Robert W. Brockway Ph.D.</strong> is professor emeritus of religion at Brandon University in Canada.
