Synopsis "Psychology of the Unconscious A Study of the Transformations and Symbolisms of the Libido"

Carl Jung called this book a commentary on the prodromal stages of schizophrenia. The object of his research was the writings of the American performer Miss Frank Miller. After reading her papers, Jung decided the lady was developing an early stage of schizophrenia. Although he was eventually wrong, the work is considered one of his main works and belongs to his major opus "Symbols of Transformation" under the name "Miller Fantasies." Later in his life, Jung acknowledged that, in fact, he was trying to analyze his own psyche and referred to personal problems.

Carl Gustav Jung was born in July 1875 in Kesswil, Switzerland, into a very religious family. He was a withdrawn and lonely child, who spent much of his childhood unable to relate to brothers or sisters. Partly because of this, he used to play with elements of nature and used his imagination to weave extravagant narrative lines about everything he experienced.

However, the unusual mental associations and the symbolism that populated young Jung's mind did not limit their reign to the hours he was awake. Jung began very early to have very vivid dreams with a strong symbolic charge. And, as expected from someone who dedicated a large part of his career to studying dreams, at least one of these dreams marked him for life.
