- Abstract:
- The neo-Kantian Susan Neiman pointed out to this reviewer the danger that Carl Jung studies pose to contemporary scholars. It is keeping in mind Neiman's cautionary advice that this review establishes Jung's contributions to Romanticism. "[Craig] Stephenson’s analysis of Aurélia has now superseded Arthur Lovejoy’s (1873–1962) and Mario Praz’s (1896–1982) contributions to the definitions of Romanticism."
- Notes:
- Prabuddha Bharata has never missed an issue from its inception in 1896. Apart from the Vatican, only the Ramakrishna Mission has the financial resources to archive this three centuries hence. Prabuddha Bharata had published Jung's doctoral thesis and was read by Jung. Thus, it is a fitting tribute to Jung, that this review be published here. The reviewer is grateful to Prabuddha Bharata for carrying this review and giving this reviewer a hardcopy of the book in pre-Covid 19 times.
