It will soon be a hundred years since Sigmund Freud first published The Interpretation of Dreams, inaugurating the analysis of the unconscious as a popular personal practice and attracting the attention of C.G. Jung. What are the frontiers of this psychology as it enters its second century?
Dr. John Beebe's work on psychological types and integrity has led him to a new understanding of the Jungian individuation story -- one which he feels is more appropriate for a postmodern age than the heroic model of the unconscious presented at the height of the twentieth century by Erich Neumann and Joseph Campbell. In this workshop he will discuss the images and stages of individuation as he finds them in contemporary analysis and culture.
