Instructor: Robert Moretti

If you are new to Jung, or are looking for a refresher of his fundamental ideas, this lecture is for you. Many people who try to read Jung on their own are discouraged by the complexity of his thought and writing.   This presentation aims to address this issue by providing an easily digestible explanation of Jung’s central ideas, sorting them within the context of his life experience and work. The goal is to give participants a background and starting point for comprehending Jung. By the end of the evening, participants will understand the central idea of Jung’s psychology, know why dreams are important, and be able to identify 4 common archetypes. In addition to the lecture and discussion, some video excerpts of interviews with Jung will be presented.
