Carl Gustav Jung

Carl Gustav Jung

Carl Gustav Jung:

Born in 26 July 1875 was a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who founded analytical psychology. His work has been influential not only in psychiatry but also in philosophy, anthropology, archaeology, literature, religious studies, quantum mechanics and psychobiology as well as neuroscience. As a notable research scientist based at the famous Burghölzli hospital, under Eugen Bleuler, he came to the attention of a Viennese neurologist, Sigmund Freud. The two men conducted a lengthy correspondence and collaborated on an initially joint vision of human psychology. Freud saw in the younger man, the potential "aryan" heir he had been seeking to carry on his "new science" of Psychoanalysis. Jung's researches and personal vision, however, made it impossible for him to bend to his older colleague's dogma and a breach became inevitable. This break was to have historic as well as painful personal repercussions that have lasted to this day. Jung was in addition, an artist, craftsman and builder as well as a prolific writer. Many of his works were not published until after his death and some are still awaiting publication.

Among the central concepts of analytical psychology is individuation—the lifelong psychological process of differentiation of the self out of each individual's conscious and unconscious elements. Jung considered it to be the main task of human development. He created some of the best known psychological concepts, including synchronicity, archetypal phenomena, the collective unconscious, the psychological complex, and extraversion and introversion.

Died 6 June 1961 in Küsnacht, Zürich, Switzerland.

XI Congrés International de Psychologie

Dear readers,

today we bring to you a picture from a cover with a commemorative from the 11th International Congress of Psychology

At the begining the 11th International Congress of Psychology was planned to take place in Madrid in September 1936, as initially planned. Instead, it was held in Paris in July of the following year. The finding of a so-far unpublished correspondence between the main organizers of the event, the Spanish psychologists José Germain and Emilio Mira, and the Swiss psychologist Edouard Claparéde, makes it possible to gain new insight into the circumstances preventing its celebration in Madrid. This paper aims at shedding some light on such circumstances by unraveling the social and political context alluded to in these letters, and connecting their contents with other significant events and documents on the various organizational aspects of the congress.
