![]() | Ancient Greece, Modern Psyche: Archetypes Evolving Subjects: Behavioral Sciences; Humanities; Mental Health; Classical Studies; Religion; Jung & Analytical Psychology; Greek History & Culture; Ancient Religions; Ancient Religions; Between ancient Greece and modern psyche lies a divide of not only three thousand years, but two cultures that are worlds apart in art, technology, economics and the accelerating flood of historical events. This unique collection of essays from an international selection of contributors offers compelling evidence for the natural connection and relevance of ancient myth to contemporary psyche, and emerges from the second 'Ancient Greece, Modern Psyche' conference held in Santorini, Greece, in 2012. Virginia Beane Rutter, M.A., M.S and Thomas Singer , M.D. are both Jungian psychoanalysts affiliated with the C. G. Jung Institute in San Francisco who have life-long connections to Greek culture. They are co-authors and editors of a previous volume of Ancient Greece, Modern Psyche which originated from the first Nomikos Conference in Santorini. Beane Rutter studies ancient myths and rites of passage through art, archaeology, and psychology and writes about the archetype of initiation as it appears in the clinical work of individuals today. Singer has produced and written multiple publications that focus on 'the cultural complex'. He currently serves as President of the National Board of ARAS (The Archive for Research in Archetypal Symbolism). |
