Om den här e-boken

This early 1905 work delves into the concept of cryptomnesia (original German title: Kryptomnesia), where forgotten memories surface and are mistaken for original thoughts. Jung examines the implications of cryptomnesia for the understanding of the unconscious and creativity, setting a foundation for his later work on the collective unconscious. This edition is a new translation from the original German manuscript with an Afterword by the Translator, a philosophic index of Jung's terminology and a timeline of his life and works. This was originally published in the hournal "Die Zukunft" in 1905, pages 325-334. Some textual changes were made by the translator, including removing spurious graphs. Here Jung lays the groundwork for what would become his theory of synchronicity. He explores in detail the concept of cryptomnesic recall, focusing in particular on what is known as the 'Speak of the Devil Syndrome'. This syndrome involves experiencing a sense of foreknowledge of an event that is about to occur, often triggered by the content of a dream. For example, when talking about a person, one may suddenly feel that they are about to meet that person, and indeed the person appears shortly afterwards. The author refers to Jung's observations of such occurrences, suggesting that they come from dream memories. They argue that what Jung called 'waking prescience' is essentially a 'cryptomnesic memory' of a dream, suggesting that there is only one kind of prescience, firmly rooted in dreams.

Om författaren

Carl Gustav Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, is credited with founding analytical psychology, a framework that has profoundly influenced both psychological theory and practice. Born on July 26, 1875, in Kesswil, Switzerland, Jung first studied medicine and later specialized in psychiatry. His early association with Sigmund Freud significantly shaped his theoretical perspectives, particularly regarding the unconscious. However, Jung departed from Freud's emphasis on sexuality and instead proposed concepts such as the collective unconscious and archetypes - universal symbols that resonate across cultures. His exploration of individuation, the process of self-realization, emphasized the importance of integrating different aspects of the psyche. Jung's contributions extend beyond psychology into fields such as religion, art, and mythology, where his insights into human behavior and symbolism continue to resonate. He died on June 6, 1961, leaving a lasting legacy that continues to inspire both practitioners and scholars in the field of depth psychology.
