Printing Details

First edition. Slim pamphlet, stapled binding. 18.5 × 12.5cm, 18pp.

In Guild Lecture No. 117, eminent Jungian psychiatrist and Society of Analytical Psychology co-founder Dr. Michael Fordham delivers an authoritative study on the evolution and structure of the Self in C.G. Jung's analytical writings. Fordham traces how Jung moved from empirical observations of mandalas and sacred symbolism to defining the Self as the central organizing archetype of psychological totality. Examining the dynamic interplay between the conscious Ego and the transpersonal Self, Fordham clarifies the distinction between empirical psychological experience and metaphysical abstraction, offering a landmark paper on the psychological foundation of religious experience and individuation.
