Is Carl Jung legit?

for lit, yeah

>>8096785
Yep.

Sigmund Shlomo Fruad's bitch

>synchronicity
>so like, whoa, what if you're like, get this, listening to a song on the radio and then you call your friend and he's like listening to the same song?

You can save yourself a lot of time and avoid the same mistakes as taking Freud too seriously by just reading Joseph Campbell, any of his ideas as applied to /lit/ or myths or all there without being overly fanciful and he more directly applies them to literature. And as a sweet bonus Campbell's a pocket Joyce scholar so you can tackle two birds with one stone.

>>8096785
fuck yeah
Jung's thoughts about psychology, literature, dreams, myths and art are completely based. He's pretty much my hero.

what books by campbell do you recommend?
>>
>>8096785

Anyone dabbling with the occult is.
Materialists are boring and only have chimpouts and epicureanism to offer.
>>
>>8096919
Absolutely this. Jung's alchemy work is fantastic.

Read Psychology and Alchemy if you're interested.

Too bad "magic" doesn't work and science does, jackass.

HOL UP

The Portable Jung is a great collection of some of his work. It makes you realize what a power-trip hungry autist Freud was as well

is it like portable jung > man and his symbols> then his other works until mysterium and then red book?

Your junk has no practical uses

What were we supposed to learn from this?
>>
>>8097982

I havent read anything apart from portable Jung, so cant answer that. But the Viking book portable series or whatever make great compilations from what Ive seen

Where do I go with him after I finish Man and His Symbols?

good grief no, he was a massive quack
he also believed some weird stuff about magic and UFOs
>>
>>8096785
>Is Carl Jung legit?
i heard he was transphobic because he didn't think that gender is a social construct
>>
>>8100386
Congratulations, kitty, ya played yourself. Jung was the kind of man that fixed people from having mental problems regardless of identity or gender.

Also, why do you always use an archetype 'kitty' on this board, if you do not mine me asking
>>
>>8100402

>responding sincerely to such an obvious shitpost

sup reddit
>>
>>8100407
I'm not reddit, but thank you for the silly (You) , hhehhehh *slaps knee*


Reddit, what a site I am implied to be. (I better not go there, and hate it.)

(I better not fall for shit posts)
.
>>
>>8100402

i have read recently (was pointed by reading this board btw) that jung considered the state of 'anima [or animus] possession' as undesirable which should be prevented. considering that anima it's by jung the inner woman in any man and animus is the inner man in any woman and those should be "forced into the inner world" it means he clearly didn't believe in the modern theory that the gender is merely an artificial social construct which can be changed voluntarily, at least if i understood him properly

i'm not sure you use the term archetype correctly/
>>
>>8100437
Youre wrong. Or whoever told you or pointed that was wrong. (Coehlo fan here)


Archetypology is an unconcious thing based on animals. Everyone does it at some point in there life, whether it be fantasizing that they are like an owl animal (le iluminati) or a shark or a freebird or what have you.

Kitties are cute IMO, but they always keep people distant. Shame.

>damage controlling this hard

lol

you fell for an obvious shitpost so hard you actually said "ya played yourself". deal with it and move on damn m8.
>>
>>8097232
I don't get it..., are you referencing Emperor has no Clothes? Cause that's what I saw and it has nothing to do with Jung
