January 2015 Philemon Foundation VOL. TWO ISSUE #11

December 17, 2014

Dear Philemon Foundation supporter, The holiday season is once again upon us, and my colleagues and I are pleased to inform you that the work of the Foundation in 2014 has progressed in many exciting ways. We have Philemon volumes published, conferences and lectures planned, and new projects to announce! Our most recent news: All eight volumes of Jung’s ETH lectures have been accepted for publication by Princeton University Press. The unanimous vote of confidence we received from the editorial board at Princeton for this project in its entirety marks truly a momentous occasion for us as a foundation. The first volume nears completion at this time. [For more information, click here: http://philemonfoundation.org/current-projects/eth-lectures/] Also, we are excited to announce that the long-awaited Jung-Neumann Correspondence is now in final production and will be published in the Philemon Series this March 2015 by Princeton University Press. Please join us for the official launch of Analytical Psychology in Exile: The Correspondence of C. G. Jung and Erich Neumann, translated by Heather McCartney, with an important lecture by the editor, Philemon scholar Dr. Martin Liebscher, on May 23rd, 2015 at University College London. In 2008, the first of two volumes, Children’s Dreams: Notes from the Seminar Given in 1936-1940, was published in our Philemon Series. In 2014, the second volume, entitled Dream Interpretation Ancient and Modern: Notes from the Seminar in 1936-1940 by C.G. Jung, edited by John Peck, Lorenz Jung, and Maria Meyer-Grass, and translated by Ernst Falzeder with the collaboration of Tony Woolfson, was published by Princeton University Press. [For more information click here: http://philemonfoundation.org/published- works/childrens-dreams/] In addition, this year, Philemon scholar Marianne Jehle-Wildberger completed her project on Jung’s correspondence with the Swiss pastor and leading figure in the ecumenical movement, Adolf Keller. The relationship between Jung and Keller lasted for over fifty years during which time they had a lively correspondence concerning psychology and religion. The book has now been published in German by Theologischer Verlag, Zürich, under the title, C. G. Jung und Adolf Keller: Über Theologie und Psychologie: Briefe und Gespräche and will be published in English by Princeton University Press under the title, C. G. Jung and Adolf Keller: On Theology and Psychology: Correspondence and Conversations. [For more information click here: http://philemonfoundation.org/current-projects/c-g-jung-and-adolf- keller-a-conversation-between-psychology-and-theology/] Another Philemon project currently in production with Princeton University Press is Jung’s unpublished lecture on the French Romantic poet Gérard de Nerval. This volume, edited by Craig E Stephenson, will include Richard Sieburth’s award-winning translation of Nerval’s posthumous text Aurélia and Alfred Kubin’s famous illustrations to the 1910 Müller edition of Aurélia. [For more information, click here: http://philemonfoundation.org/current-projects/de-nerval/] There will be several conferences in the Spring of 2015 related to the scholarship conducted via the Philemon Foundation. The Philemon Series volume, The Question of Psychological Types: The Correspondence of C. G. Jung and Hans Schmid-Guisan, 1915-1916, will be celebrated in a special one-day conference on April 11, 2015, organized by the Jungian Psychoanalytic Association, New York, in conjunction with Philemon and co-sponsored by the IAAP. Both editors of the Jung-Schmid correspondence, John Beebe and Ernst Falzeder, as well as Philemon scholar Craig E Stephenson will be speaking. [For more information, click here: http://philemonfoundation.org/news/ ] On April 25th, Dr. Martin Liebscher will be presenting his work at The Jung-Neumann Letters: An International Conference in Celebration of a Creative Relationship. [http://jung-israel.org/jung-conference] As mentioned above, Dr. Liebscher will be making a major presentation, under Philemon auspices, in London on Saturday, May 23rd. Details will be forthcoming. I would like to remind you that the Philemon Foundation receives no royalties whatsoever from the sale of the works by C. G. Jung that we nurture all the way to publication. We depend entirely on donations from you, our friends and colleagues, to bring to completion these important and meaningful projects.

C.G. Jung Institute of Santa Fe

“Photo proof of the mercurious www.santafejung.org presence of analytical psychology!”

The C.G. Jung Institute of Santa Fe, an IRSJA Training Seminar announces a summer intensive for 12 hours of Case Colloquia credits.

June 12, 13 and 14, 2015 in Santa Fe, NM

Brian Feldman, Ph.D., will coordinate the weekend with an emphasis on Infant and Adult Attachment as affected by developmental, environmental and cultural issues. The emergence of primitive/infantile mental states within the transference/countertransference relationship will be explored as well as how we as analysts reflect upon, hold and contain primitive/infantile emotional states and how the analytic exploration of these mental states promotes integration and individuation. The transmission of cultural and social trauma will also be explored as trauma is transmitted from one generation to the next at both conscious and unconscious levels.

This Intensive will be Friday, June 12 from 6-8 PM, Saturday, June 13 from 9-4:30, and Sunday, June 15 from 9- 1:00.

Brian Feldman is a certified child, adolescent, and adult Jungian psychoanalyst and infant observation seminar leader. He is the Chair of the infant, child and adolescent training program at the Jung Institute of San Francisco, and an active member of the IRSJA.

Messages from the Heart

Dear Colleagues: Nine Bows, Buddhist Contemplation Many thanks for your prayers and messages of support over the “Homage to all that is healing months since I fell and broke my hip. My hip has mended well after surgery for a complicated break. I have done and am doing very helpful PT and three in a person’s life, times a week vigorous gym workouts. Good medicine. I am doing well. in traditions, For those of you who do not know and might be bothered when you and in the world. see me, I do have a degenerative peripheral neuropathy which affects my arms and legs. So, although I am off a walker and back to walking with two canes, Homage to all that is healing the latter is “normal” for me. That’s as good as it gets or will get. On the in the lives of saints and sages, other hand I have just returned from the London Conference on “Analysis and Activism: Social and Political Contributions of Jungian Psychology.” in this practice, My mantra is: I’m grateful for the life I have and grateful for the and in my own mind, life I don’t have.

I wanted to send along a brief health update to my friends and colleagues. The most recent scans in earlier December were far better than those in early October, which had followed 7 weeks of basically no treatment due to surgery, a lengthy hospitalization for septic shock, and then another emergency hospital visit due to reactions to meds. These most recent scans showed a diminishing of the regrown October tumors, thus placing me back to where I was prior to the late August surgery--a bit daunting to hear that, but Names to hold in our healing meditations. better than more new growth and spreading of the cancer. So, for now, my MD (who absolutely is tuned to the latest treatments possible) is thinking more surgery (ugh!), radiation possibilities and/or the access to the latest possible Sue Crommelin cure just released in Sept.--nicknamed PD-1. However, due to the recent release of the med and limited supply, etc. one has to meet the protocol for Deborah Bryon such, which evidently is tough to do. I'm hopeful I'll make the cut for being Charles Zeltzer able to make use of it. ------In the meanwhile, I could never express fully my appreciation to so many of you, my friends & colleagues, who have sent cards David Schoen and notes over the last 8 months expressing your care for me and my healing in this battle with metastatic melanoma. It is a tough ride for sure, but with my Jerome Bernstein family and so many of you at my side, I remain realistically hopeful. In the I- Joann Culbert-Koehn RS, I think we are far more than a professional society or even a training society. At times like this, my experience is that there are many among us Karen Kemper Magee who know we are a community of caring individuals, always ready to support one another.
