The Origins And History Of Consciousness by Carl Jung, Franz Neumann, Helen R. Hull

Bollingen Series

A classic exploration of depth psychology that traces the evolution of human consciousness through archetypal motifs in myth, religion, and art. It follows a progression from a primordial, undifferentiated state symbolized by the uroboros and Great Mother, through the hero’s struggle to separate from the unconscious, toward the emergence and maturation of the ego and its potential integration with the Self. Drawing on cross-cultural narratives, it argues that individual psychological development mirrors the collective history of the psyche.
