Although Jung actively considered publishing the Red Book, he never took the necessary steps. In he privately published the Septem Sermones ad Mortuos Seven Sermons to the Dead , a short work that arose out of his confrontation with the unconscious. There are a number of reasons why he did not publish the Red Book. As he himself stated, it was unfinished.
His growing interest in alchemy as a research topic distracted him. As late as he declared that the Black Books and the Red Book were autobiographical records that he did not want published in his Collected Works because they were not of a scholarly character. As a concession, he allowed Aniela Jaffe to quote excerpts from the Red Book and the Black Books in Memories, Dreams, Reflections — a possibility which she made little use of. In , Jung died.
His literary estate became the property of his descendants, who formed the Society of Heirs of C. In his will, Jung had expressed the wish that the Red Book and the Black Books should remain with his family, without, however, giving more derailed instructions. In the Society ol Heirs placed the Red Book in a safe-deposit box, knowing that it was an irreplaceable document.
In the newly appointed executive committee had five photographic duplicates made for family use. This careful handling had its benefits. When, after , the editing of the German Collected Works — a selection of works — was drawing to a conclusion, the executive committee decided to start looking through all the accessible unpublished material with an eye to further publications.
I took up this task, because in , the Sociery of Heirs had placed the responsibility for archival and editorial questions on me. It turned out that there was an entire corpus of drafts and variants pertaining to the Red Book. Yet whether and how this substantial material could be published remained an open question. Much was unclear and by the mid — s there was no one left who could have provided first — hand information on these points.
While working on other projects I had come in contact with Sonu Shamdasani. In extensive talks we discussed the possibility of further Jung publications, both in general terms as well as with regard to the Red Book.
The book had emerged within a specific context with which a reader at the turn of the twenty-first century is no longer familiar. But a historian of psychology would be able to present it to the modern reader as a historical document. In Sonu Shamdasani developed a publication proposal following these guiding principles.
On the basis of this proposal the Society of Heirs decided in spring — not without discussion — to release the Red Book for publication and to hand over the task of editing it to Sonu Shamdasani. Everything later was merely the outer classification, the scientific elaboration, and the integration into life. JUNG, I have been asked repeatedly why, after so many years, the Red Book is now being published.
Some new understandings on our part played a major role: Jung himself did not—as it had seemed—consider the Red Book a secret. Caps are insult due to their shouting nature.

Anyone so hasty as to not scroll through the plates to discover that the English translations follow, are perhaps not suited to any form of esoteric material or maybe don't understand exactly what this work is, with regards to Jung's life.
I am only reviewing to hopefully help anyone in a rush that may see the incorrect reviews regarding the translation. The whole book is there. No judgement whatsoever, I just think it is apparent that you lack any emotional or intellectual content required. You really shouldn't take it upon yourself to "review" any material you can't even be bothered to attempt a read. There are many illustrations and embellishments that inflate the page count.
In case you need it further broken down, pages of text AND illustrations won't translate to pages of text. Unless you are reading the German, the first portion is primarily an art piece for you to analyze along with the rest. English Translations begin on pg , if another language so offends thine eye.

I scoured the net looking for a complete copy. I think these people are just writing crap review to lower the rating, but why? How can one be interested in such work and be a complete fool as not to read the material just to see if it is legit? Jung Free Download pages Author C. Jung Submitted by: Jane Kivik.
