Collected Works Of C. G. Jung, Volume 4: Freud And Psychoanalysis
The authoritative edition of Jungās essential writings for understanding his early enthusiasm forāand later split withāFreud and psychoanalysis
Freud and Psychoanalysis gathers Jungās writings on Freud and psychoanalysis published between 1906 and 1916, along with two later, related papers. The book covers the period of the enthusiastic collaboration between the two pioneers of psychology through the years when Jungās growing appreciation of religious experience, his criticism of Freudās emphasis on pathology, and other differences led to Jungās formal break with his mentor. Part I features brief studies of Freudās theory of hysteria, dream analysis, the psychology of rumor, and other subjects. Parts II and III contain the essentials of the criticism that led to Jungās rupture with Freud, the most important of which is āThe Theory of Psychoanalysis.ā Part IV presents āThe Significance of the Father in the Destiny of the Individual.ā The bookās final two pieces, āFreud and Jung: Contrastsā and the introduction to a book by W. M. Kranefeldt, further illuminate Jungās reassessment of psychoanalysis.
