Jung's Library

“The main content of Jung’s private library was contemporary literature of the 19th and 20th century, mainly about medicine, psychiatry, psychology and philosophy. Additionally there are a great number of books on antique cultures, gnosis, christian symbols, eastern religion, ethnology and occultism. The library also contains a collection of about 300 rare books (printed before 1800) on alchemy, theurgy and kabbala, as well as antique literature on dreams, writings of church fathers and of the latin and greek classic.”

The Confrontation with the World was created by Charles
In 1928 Richard Wilhelm sent Jung a copy of The Secret of the Golden Flower and asked him to comment on it. This book allowed Jung to see a connection between European unconsciousness and Eastern eschatology. This becam e amajor theme of Jung's work in the 1930's. He now found a new way to speak about his discoveries. From a confrontation with his soul Jung turned to a confrontation with the world. His writing in the Black Books stopped.
