Receive The Red Book Hours: Discovering C.G. Jungs Art Mediums And Creative Process Drafted By Jill Mellick Script

psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, and theorist Carl Gustav Jungexperienced powerful visions, often terrifying, However, seeing their great potential value, he found ways to encourage further visions and fantasies, Over many years, he recorded his experiences in a series of small journals, added commentaries and transcribed them, using calligraphy and illuminations, into a large, red, leatherbound

volume, commonly known as The Red Book.
Jung never published the Liber Novus, as he called this pivotal part of his oeuvre, and left no instructions for its final disposition, and it therefore remained unpublished until recently.


The large format, leatherbound volume of The Red Book Hours complements the facsimile edition and Englishlanguage translation of The Red Book, published in, and draws out insights into Jungs affinity with art as a means of personal insight.
Psychologist and multimedia artist Jill Mellick documents copious research into Jungs choices regarding media and technique and his careful design of environments in which he could experience creative processes and allow unconscious content to flow forth.
Her unlikely journey includes explorations of memory, serendipity, and science, A stunning interplay of texts and images includes magnifications of the wildly colorful and intricately detailed sketches from The Red Book and a selection of Jungs own pigments, never seen until now, The Red Book Hours presents a more comprehensive picture than ever before of the foundational psychoanalysts experience and expression of his rich inner world.
