Book Jung and the Epic of Transformation Vol  1

Download or read book Jung and the Epic of Transformation Vol 1 written by Paul Bishop and published by Chiron Publications. This book was released on 2024-06-01 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What have the Middle Ages got to do with us? For Jung, it seems, quite a lot, after all, he tells us: “I must catch up with a piece of the Middle Ages — within myself,” adding: “We have only finished the Middle Ages — of others.” In Wolfram von Eschenbach’s “Parzival” and the Grail as Transformation, Paul Bishop considers the significance for Jung of a masterpiece of medieval German literature, and a major work in the tradition of the legendary Holy Grail. Wolfram’s Parzival epic depicts a three-fold quest: for the hero’s identity, for vröude (“joy”), and for the mysterious Grail. In the course of this quest, Parzival himself is transformed from a fool into the lord of the Grail, and the power of the Grail brings about a collective transformation as well. This is the first volume in a series of books, examining key texts in German literature and thought that were, in Jung’s own estimation or by scholarly consent, highly influential on his thinking. The project of Jung and the Epic of Transformation consists of four titles, sequentially arranged to explore great works from a Jungian perspective and in turn to highlight their importance for interpreting The Red Book.

Book Celtic Myth and Arthurian Romance

Download or read book Celtic Myth and Arthurian Romance written by Roger Sherman Loomis and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2005-08-30 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: King Arthur was not an Englishman, but a Celtic warrior, according to Loomis, whose research into the background of the Arthurian legend reveals findings which are both illuminating and highly controversial. The author sees the vegetarian goddess as the prototype of many damsels in Arthurian romance, and Arthur's knights as the gods of sun and storm. If Loomis's arguments are accepted, where does this leave the historic Arthur?

Book   ric Rohmer

    Book Details:
  • Author : Antoine de Baecque
  • Publisher : Columbia University Press
  • Release : 2016-06-14
  • ISBN : 0231541570
  • Pages : 670 pages

Download or read book ric Rohmer written by Antoine de Baecque and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 670 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The director of twenty-five films, including My Night at Maud's (1969), which was nominated for a Best Picture Academy Award, and the editor in chief of Cahiers du cinéma from 1957 to 1963, Éric Rohmer set the terms by which people watched, made, and thought about cinema for decades. Such brilliance does not develop in a vacuum, and Rohmer cultivated a fascinating network of friends, colleagues, and industry contacts that kept his outlook sharp and propelled his work forward. Despite his privacy, he cared deeply about politics, religion, culture, and fostering a public appreciation of the medium he loved. This exhaustive biography uses personal archives and interviews to enrich our knowledge of Rohmer's public achievements and lesser known interests and relations. The filmmaker kept in close communication with his contemporaries and competitors: François Truffaut, Jean-Luc Godard, Claude Chabrol, and Jacques Rivette. He held a paradoxical fascination with royalist politics, the fate of the environment, Catholicism, classical music, and the French nightclub scene, and his films were regularly featured at New York and Los Angeles film festivals. Despite an austere approach to life, Rohmer had a voracious appetite for art, culture, and intellectual debate captured vividly in this definitive volume.
