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 Renaissance - a prelude was created by Charles
Who are the writers and books that define the Renaissance? What of painters and composers? Following Durant we will first look at Italy and the years 1300- 1377. This shall be called the age of Petrarch and Boccaccio. with a look at the role of the Popes in Avignon. We have the letter that Petrarch wrote to Cicero; and also the Decameron of Boccaccio to consider, as replies to this note.
