Mlinarec __________________________________________________________________________________ *Cover page designed by Misser Berg; photo: Jimmy Lassen “The New Moon with Earth-shine” EDITORIAL Dear Readers, We entered 2014 with the new IAAP administration, ably led by Tom Kelly. The new Executive Committee was voted for at the Copenhagen Congress and its members are introduced to you in the Around the World section of this issue. The Chinese Year of the Horse has ushered in a spirit of chanGe, inspiration, movement and adventure, but it also cautions us to be discerning in our actions. Unfortunately, this year has also seen a renewed intensity in the political rivalry between the powers of the “West” and the “East” over what is left of the natural resources of our planet, and for the supremacy over territories of strateGically important Geo-political positions. The mutual accusations and shadow projections are rife in the mainstream media just as they have always been at times of conflictinG political interests. Only with the knowledge of the historical, cultural, geographical and economic backGround of events can we hope to arrive at any reasonably objective and informed view on what motivates the political decisions that affect all of us. Nevertheless, whatever the powers of world politics may want us to believe, in our JunGian world, the East and the West are not only not in conflict, but they peacefully coexist in the spirit of colleGiality, mutual respect and creative collaboration. Whether by a meaninGful coincidence or not, many months before the present crisis in the Ukraine could have been anticipated, we thouGht of invitinG the Russian society and an American society to present their profiles in this issue. They kindly accepted and so, in this Newssheet, you will find out about one of the oldest societies in the USA, the C. G. Jung Institute Of San Francisco (CGJISF), and one of the “younGest” Group members of the IAAP, with their traininG status officially recoGnized at the CopenhaGen ConGress in 2013, the Russian Society For Analytical PsycholoGy (RSAP). The DevelopinG Group profile comes from China, the JunGian Journal is from Japan, and our interviewee is Dr. Jean Knox, a well-known Jungian analyst, psychiatrist and author from Great Britain. Our artist, Meredith Mitchell, comes from the United States. Once aGain, the Newssheet brinGs toGether colleaGues from all over the world. We are pleased to let you know that at the new IAAP Executive Committee meetinG in Zurich this February, the Publications and Communication Sub-Committee decided to continue to publish two issues of the Newssheet each year. This is thanks to your emails of support and positive feedbacks. On behalf of the Sub-Committee, I send you our heartfelt thanks and please, do continue to let us have your comments and suGGestions about this and future issues. Newssheet No. 7 is due in October of this year, and we would be Grateful if your contributions would reach us before the end of July. Please let us know of any creative work you would like to share with colleagues on our Art Corner page and of any events significant for your society for the Around the World section. Our warm Thank you to all contributors to this issue for their informative and creative work. With best wishes, Emilija Kiehl Editor 2 FROM THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Message From the President Dear Members of the IAAP, It is with Great pleasure that I have the honor of contributinG to the first Newssheet for 2014. The Newssheet provides me with the opportunity to Give you some information on developments within the IAAP since the ConGress in CopenhaGen which, I think everyone who attended will aGree, was a huGe success. The work of the ProGram Committee and its chair, Robert Wimmer, and of the OrGanizinG Committee under the outstandinG talent and skill of Misser BerG contributed to makinG the ConGress a success in every way. The members of both committees as well as our hosts, the members of the Danish Society, are to be conGratulated for the success in hostinG the international JunGian community in such a well- orGanized and hospitable manner. The newly elected Executive Committee had its first meeting in Zurich in February. In addition to the President, the new Executive Committee is composed of Marianne Müller (SGAP, AGAP, Switzerland), President-Elect, AnGela Connolly (CIPA, Italy) and Toshio Kawai (AJAJ, AGAP, Japan), Vice-Presidents, Misser BerG (DSAP, Denmark), Honorary Secretary and nine representatives of the Group Members: Pilar AmezaGa (SUPA, Uruguay), Fred Borchardt (SAAJA, South Africa), Alessandra de Coro (AIPA, Italy), Christine Hejinian (CGJISF, San Francisco), George HoGenson (CSJA, ChicaGo), Emilija Kiehl (BJAA, London), Margaret Klenck (JPA, New York), Batya Brosh Palmoni (IIJP, Israel), and Robert Wimmer (DGAP, Germany). It was impressive to see how quickly the new EC became acquainted with their responsibilities and how efficiently they worked over the course of our meetinG. The ProGram Committee also met in Zurich to choose a theme for the Kyoto Congress in 2016. The Committee is composed of the five officers and Stephan Alder (DGAP, Germany), Alvaro Ancona (SBrPA, Brazil), Grazina Gudaite (LAAP, Lithuania), and Patricia Vesey-McGrew (NESJA, New EnGland). You will soon receive a letter from the Chair of the ProGram Committee, Toshio Kawai, informinG you of the theme for the conference and invitinG you to submit proposals for presentations. The IAAP is becominG an increasinGly complex orGanization. At the ConGress in CopenhaGen, four new Group Members were accepted into membership with the result that we now have a total of fifty-nine Group Members. With the Individual Members and Honorary Members, we can see that the scope of our membership is indeed very wide. While this is reflective of the Growth in interest in Analytical PsycholoGy and is certainly to be welcomed, it also hiGhliGhts the challenGe of keepinG the membership informed about the activities of the IAAP and about the interests of our colleagues scattered around the Globe. Over the years, the Newssheet has provided an invaluable service to the membership and has become an effective and efficient means of communication not only about the various Group Members but also about the DevelopinG Groups and Router Groups around the world and about projects that are dear to them. This is one way the IAAP contributes to keepinG you informed. To that end, we hope to have sufficient funds to support the publication of two Newssheets per year in this administration. You will hopefully by now have been informed that the website of the IAAP has been chanGed and simplified to make it easier to naviGate and to access information. The revamped website, which you can access at www.iaap.orG, provides information on C.G. 3 JunG, the IAAP, as well as announcements about forthcominG conferences. In the Members Site, you can find documents of interest to the membership such as the Constitution, the Ethics documents, the minutes of most of the MeetinG of DeleGates since 1955, minutes of the Executive Committee and, of course, the database with contact information for every member of the IAAP. GeorGe HoGenson, chair of the Publications and Communications Sub-Committee, Misser BerG and I have worked toGether to craft a website that will be functional and easily manaGeable. As it turns out, the work on this project has been rather time consuminG and somewhat more complicated than anticipated. It has also Given us an appreciation for the enormous amount of work done by Don Williams on the previous IAAP website. We are grateful to him for his many years of service and acknowledge that being the sole person responsible for the website was a lonely and sometimes thankless job. The website is very much a work in proGress however. Efforts still need to be made to simplify access to the database and to make it possible for each member to choose their own password to access the Members Site and to update their personal information on the database. Our Goal is to simplify this process for everyone. In addition, we are workinG to establish a more efficient and less time consuminG way of emailinG directly to the membership. In the interim however, as President, I will communicate with the Presidents of the Group Members and ask them to forward any communication directly to their members. The challenGes we are facinG in updatinG the way the IAAP communicates with you only hiGhliGht the importance of the Newssheet as a means of communication. This Newssheet will provide you with information on two Group Members, the C.G. JunG Institute of San Francisco and the Russian Society for Analytical Psychology. You will be introduced to the DevelopinG Group from GuanGzhou in China and will also have the opportunity to learn about activities in Japan. We trust this will help provide you with a Glimpse of the scope of the activities of the IAAP and of its members. The Newssheet would not be possible without the enormous effort of its editor, Emilija Kiehl. We are indebted to her for her hard work, tireless enerGy and creativity in providing the membership with such an informative, varied and visually pleasing Newssheet. We are also indebted to the members of the Publications and Communication Sub- Committee for their contribution to the Newssheet: GeorGe HoGenson, Chair, Pilar AmezaGa, Misser BerG, Fred Borchardt, and Emilija Kiehl. Our thanks to each of you. We hope you will enjoy learninG about your colleaGues throuGh this Newssheet.

  • Introduction: Jung, New York, 1912 Sonu Shamdasani
    Copyrighted Material IntroductIon: Jung, neW York, 1912 Sonu Shamdasani September 28, 1912. the New York Times featured a full-page inter- view with Jung on the problems confronting america, with a por- trait photo entitled “america facing Its Most tragic Moment”— the first prominent feature of psychoanalysis in the Times. It was Jung, the Times correctly reported, who “brought dr. freud to the recognition of the older school of psychology.” the Times went on to say, “[H]is classrooms are crowded with students eager to under- stand what seems to many to be an almost miraculous treatment. His clinics are crowded with medical cases which have baffled other doctors, and he is here in america to lecture on his subject.” Jung was the man of the hour. aged thirty-seven, he had just com- pleted a five-hundred-page magnum opus, Transformations and Sym‑ bols of the Libido, the second installment of which had just appeared in print. following his first visit to america in 1909, it was he, and not freud, who had been invited back by Smith ely Jelliffe to lec- ture on psychoanalysis in the new international extension course in medicine at fordham university, where he would also be awarded his second honorary degree (others invited included the psychiatrist William alanson White and the neurologist Henry Head). Jung’s initial title for his lectures was “Mental Mechanisms in Health and disease.” By the time he got to composing them, the title had become simply “the theory of Psychoanalysis.” Jung com- menced his introduction to the lectures by indicating that he in- tended to outline his attitude to freud’s guiding principles, noting that a reader would likely react with astonishment that it had taken him ten years to do so.

Box 779 – 6612 Ascona – Switzerland www.eranosfoundation.org – [email protected] 2014 Annual Report Activity, Eranos Foundation Page 2 ANNUAL ACTIVITY REPORT 2014 OF THE ERANOS FOUNDATION 1. INTRODUCTION Throughout the year 2014, the endurance of the Foundation Board, combined with the kind attention and generosity of our financial and scientific partners, have allowed to further develop the various scien- tific activities and the reaching of a financial condition, which allows now to elaborate further relevant pro- jects. The Foundation has the big privilege to count among its faithful partners The Fetzer Institute of Kal- amazoo (MI, USA) as well as The Pacifica Graduate Institute of Santa Barbara (CA, USA). We are par- ticularly grateful to the Fetzer Institute for granting the financial support throughout the years 2013–2015. On the other hand, the Pacifica Graduate Institute has continued the scientific contacts with the Founda- tion and has been planning several activities to be held at Eranos in the mid-term future. Both partners contributed significantly to reinforce the network and the visibility of the Foundation and this allows us to better fulfil our mission. Thanks to the favorable real estate loan conditions offered by Banca della Svizzera Italiana (BSI), the Foundation could reach an operational status with an unprecedented optimism. Each member of the Board has intensely worked according to individual potential to support the ambitious scientific program proposed by the President, Prof. Fabio Merlini, in close collaboration with the Scientific Secretary, Dr. Ric- cardo Bernardini.

  • Introduction by John Beebe and Ernst Falzeder
    Introduction by John Beebe and Ernst Falzeder Jung’s PSYCHOLOGICAL TYPES appeared in 1921 to widespread acclaim and received many laudatory reviews.1 In a two-page spread in the New York Times Book Review, Mark Isham concluded: “This volume is drastically serious, positive, didac- tic, classic, and yet more than stimulating. It is energizing, lib- erating and recreative. The author shows an amazingly sym- pathetic knowledge of the introvert of the thinking type, and hardly less for the other types. Jung has revealed the inner kingdom of the soul marvelously well and has made the signal discovery of the value of phantasy. His book has a manifold reach and grasp, and many reviews with quite different sub- ject matter could be written about it” (1923). Psychological Types has been one of Jung’s most infl uential and enduring works, leaving an indelible mark on psychology, psycho- therapy, personality testing, anthropology, popular culture, and even language. It was Jung’s fi rst major publication in nearly a decade since his 1911– 12 book on Transformations and Symbols of the Libido. Yet there has been little study of either its genesis and elaboration from his fi rst brief presentation on 1 Sigmund Freud was not pleased, however: “A new production by Jung of enormous size [,] 700 pages thick, inscribed ‘Psychologische Typen[,]’ the work of a snob and a mystic, no new idea in it. He clings to that escape he had de- tected in 1913, denying objective truth in psychology on account of the per- sonal differences in the observer’s constitution.

    PHILEMON, KA, AND CREATIVE FANTASY: THE FORMATION OF THE RECONCILING SYMBOL IN JUNG’S VISUAL WORK, 1919–1923 DIANE FINIELLO ZERVAS PHANÊS • VOLUME 2 • 2019 • PP. 59–103 https://doi.org/10.32724/phanes.2019.Zervas PHILEMON, KA, AND CREATIVE FANTASY 60 ABSTRACT Thanks to the publication of The Red Book (2009) and The Art of C.G. Jung (2019), we now have a substantial corpus of the visual works that Jung created between 1913 and 1923, a period when he was deeply engaged with Liber Novus, its transcription and elaboration into The Red Book, whilst at the same time formulating the core concepts of analytical psychology. This article identifies several previously unrecognised representations of two of Jung’s most important personifications, the ‘dominant fathers’ Philemon and Ka. I then trace their roles in some of Jung’s visual works that include the image of the cross-quartered circle and sphere, his prime example of the reconciling symbol of the creation of the new god, and of individuation. After examining two paintings in detail, Amor Triumphat (1920-21) and Cat. 66 in The Art of C.G. Jung (c. 1921-23), I conclude with Jung’s designs for Emma Jung’s memorial at Bollingen (1956), and his family tomb at Küsnacht (1957). KEY WORDS Jung’s visual work, Liber Novus, The Red Book, Philemon, Ka, the reconciling symbol, Amor Triumphat, mandalas.
