March/April 2010 Spirituality
The Red Book
by C.G. Jung
“One word that was never spoken. One light that was never lit up.
An unparalleled confusion. And a road without end.”
— C.G. Jung in The Red Book
Psychologist C.G. Jung worked on The Red Book from 1914 to 1930. Although its existence has been known for more than 80 years, The Red Book was never published or made available to the wide audience of Jung’s students and followers. In late 2009, it was published in a full facsimile edition with a contextual essay and notes by the noted Jung scholar Sonu Shamdasani, and translated by Mark Kyburz, John Peck and Shamdasani. The Red Book provides a unique window into how Jung recovered his soul and established a psychology.
The Oregon Friends of C.G. Jung presents a lecture and seminar by Sonu Shamdasani on April 16-17 at the First Congregational Church in Portland. Visit www.ofj.org/redbook.
