Jungian Dream Theory Book

$34.00

A mid-century paperback exploring the symbolic language of dreams through Jungian analysis—positioned between psychology, myth, and art.

Category: Curated

File under: Analytical Psychology, Symbolism, Mythopoetic Thought

Description

Jungian Dream Interpretation: A Handbook of Theory and Practice by James A. Hall, M.D. situates dreamwork as both method and metaphor—an attempt to translate the unconscious into narrative form. Written at the dawn of self-awareness entering the cultural mainstream, its ideas resonate even more profoundly in the present, as contemporary physics uncovers realities both conscious and unconscious, true and untrue. This text reads now almost as prophecy—anticipating our growing recognition of dreamstates and symbols as quantum thresholds between perception and possibility. Found copy retains the tactility of its time: annotated margins, softened spine, and well-worn with use.
