Intimate friends, dangerous rivals. The turbulent relationship between Freud and Jung.

Zustand: Gut. XVI, 247 S. Umschlag leicht defekt. Bleistiftanstreichungen. - The year: 1907. The place: Sigmund Freud's home in Vienna. The event: The two giants of modern psychology, Freud and Carl Jung, stood face-to-face for the first time - Freud, in his fifties, short, immaculate, and urbane; and Jung, in his early thirties, tall, rugged, and socially awkward. They were an ill-matched pair from the start, yet a rich friendship and collaboration began that day, which would help promote psychoanalysis around the world. The meeting would become an epochal moment in the lives of both men. Their high expectations, which had developed through an exchange of only ten letters, were immediately confirmed. Their exchange of ideas was intense. Following that fateful encounter, Jung believed he had found his mentor; Freud believed he had found his heir. But this essential historical collaboration was not to remain a peaceful one. Crucial differences between the two men emerged concerning the primacy of sexuality, the nature of the unconscious, and the place of religion and mythology in human development. As a result, the newly forming discipline of psychoanalysis splintered into factions. ISBN 9780874775495 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550 Originalhardcover mit Schutzumschlag.
