Octavo. xxix, 567pp. The fifth volume in Routledge and Kegan's collected works of Jung, translated by R. F. C. Hull and edited by Herbert Read, Michael Fordham, and Gerhard Adler. Jung's signature is dated 1960, a year before his death. A sheaf of plates featuring photoreproductions of various artifacts and artworks from various civilizations emblematizes Jung's fundamental theory of the collective unconscious, here applied to the psychophemonenon of schizophrenia. Bound in full teal cloth over board with titling in gilt. Fleeting rubs and shallow bumps to few corners, else near fine in very good dust wrapper. From the library of the photographer, Yousuf Karsh, who took several portraits of Jung in 1958.
