El hombre y sus símbolos

This is the first and only work by Carl G. Jung, the famous Swiss psychologist, dedicated to explaining to readers his greatest contribution to the knowledge of the human mind: the theory of symbolism and, especially, the role it plays in your dreams. The author is not only dedicated to emphasizing that man can only reach his fullness by knowing and accepting the unconscious, that is, by analyzing his dreams and symbols; but also to demonstrate that every dream is a direct, personal and significant message that uses the symbols common to all humanity in a totally individualized way, which in turn must be interpreted through an individual key as well. Accompanied by more than five hundred illustrations that provide a quick and exceptional commentary on the author's thought and based on the analysis of the nature and function of dreams, in Man and His Symbols Jung explores, among other things, the symbolic meaning of contemporary art. and the psychological meanings of the most common experiences of daily life.
