With this revised Philemon Series edition, a new introduction has been added, together with cross references to the material Jung refers to in Liber Novus, as well as further ad- ditional notes with new information. these have been identified by 2012. Mistakes in the 1989 edition have been silently omitted. Further research has shown that the passages from Joan Corrie’s ABC of Jung’s Psychology identified as being from this seminar, and reproduced in an addenda, were actually from Jung’s seminar in Swanage, england, presented in the same year, and so have been omitted. Mcguire assumed that the seminars took place on Mon- days between March and July, without a break, and so added dates to each lecture. however, recently recovered notes by Cary Baynes suggest that the seminars took place twice week, so the additional dates have been deleted.

Cary Baynes noted: yesterday began the new order, that is to say, the first of the seminars. these latter like the ancient wars as described in the school text- books, have their immediate and their remote cause, of which the former is luminously set out in Jung’s cir- cular letter. it is said that when Miss Corrie received said let- ter she felt as though her father had died.1 there was general weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth among the faith- ful, but rejoicing from this of the “Four Winds.” as i have had only two analytical hours since the first of december, it seemed a golden opportunity.

Description:
In 1925, while transcribing and painting in his Red Book, C. G. Jung presented a series of seminars in English in which he spoke for the first time in public about his early spiritualistic experiences, his encounter with Freud, the genesis of his psychology, and the self-experimentation he called hi
