Audiolibro Jung and Active Imagination with James Hillman

James Hillman is the father of Archetypal Psychology. This rare program focuses on Education, Imagination and Myth with James Hillman.

The emergence of C.G. Jung's Red Book from years of storage in a Swiss vault has re-kindled interest in active imagination. This method of self-exploration involves actively engaging one's own imagination in dialogue, through writing, art, or the spoken word.

In this 2.5 -hour streaming video program, James Hillman noted author, psychologist, and the first Director of Studies at the Jung Institute in Zurich introduces the method and delves deeply into the therapeutic value it offers in an increasingly noisy and demanding world.

Hillman considers the history and theory of active imagination in Jung, its relationship to making art, and offers examples for scrutiny and discussion. He discusses the fear of inviting demons and opening wounds, and addresses the difference between the voices of inner figures and auditory hallucinations.

The major re-examination of Jung's original ideas and inspiration doesn't stop there, though. Hillman goes on to examine the role of imagination in contemporary culture, and whether imagination itself might need re-imagining.

Hillman's seminar was taped December 9, 2009, in California.
