Animal Guides in Life, Myth and Dreams Neil Russack* 2001 |
||
| Ever since Paleolithic people learned to draw animal forms on the walls of caves, we humans have shown a mixed reaction to the animal world. On the one hand we have worshipped animals as if they were gods, and on the other treated them as personal possessions to be loved and cared for. Neil Russack has given us a beautiful and moving narrative of his and others' experience of animals - dogs, waterbirds, deer, whales, geese, elephants, elk, frogs, dolphins, horses, octopi and many more - teasing out their psychological significance through the use of mythology, poetry, dreams and case material. Above all, he honors animals in their own life.

Inanna, Lady of Largest Heart : Poems of the Sumerian High Priestess Enheduanna. Betty deShong Meador* 2001 |
Winner of the 2001 Gradiva Award from the National Association for the Advancement of Psychoanalysis. |
|
| The Gradiva Award
was inspired by Freud's "Delusions and Dreams in Jensen's Gradiva", in
which he stated, 'Creative writers are valuable allies and their evidence is to be prized
highly, for they are apt to know a whole host of things between heaven and earth of which
our philosophy has not yet let us dream.' With that in mind, NAAP established the
Gradive Awards to honor our 'valuable allies,' including poets, artists, producers,
directors, writers, publishers, etc. - who have created works that advance
psychoanalysis." About the Book: The earliest known author of written literature was a woman named Enheduanna, who lived in ancient Mesopotamia around 2300 BCE. High Priestess to the moon god Nanna, Enheduanna came to venerate the goddess Inanna above all gods in the Sumerian pantheon. The hymns she wrote to Inanna constitute the earliest written portrayal of an ancient goddess. In their celebration of Enheduanna's relationship with Inanna, they also represent the first existing account of an individual's consciousness of her inner life.

Carl Jung: Wounded Healer of the Soul Claire Dunne 2000 |
||
| This new biography of 20th-century genius Carl Jung portrays his down-to-earth, human side, with all the strengths and frailties that accompany the human condition. This book is neither hagiography nor slander. What emerges is a cohesive portrait of a healer whose skills arose from having first attended to the wounds in his own soul. Claire Dunne has used Jung's own words to reveal the journey of his individuation, with many stunning images and photographs, some never seen before. Jungian analyst John Beebe has described Carl Jung: Wounded Healer of the Soul as a worthy successor to Man and His Images and as the best single introduction to Jung for the popular reader. (We do have copies of this book at the Institute. If you are near us, you can purchase it from us in person.)

The Jungians: A Comparative and Historical Perspective Thomas Kirsch* 2000 |
||
| Irving Yalom writes: "The Jungians sets out to describe the social and political history of the Jungian communities throughout the world and accomplishes its aims admirably. It will be the gold standard for historical inquiry into the Jungian movement for decades to come with an informative discussion of the development of every institute and of the contributions of each significant figure in analytic psychology.
