Seller's Description:
Fine in very good jacket. First edition. Hardcover in light tan cloth with spine lettered in brown. Fine ( a mere touch of light foxing top edge of text block) in bright, very presentable dust jacket with a very short closed tear top egde of front panel. A scarce cornerstone title in the scholarly study of Tolkein's Middle Earth. The hold that Tolkein's work has on the modern imagination far exceeds that of any other writer in recent times. What's the explanation of this phenomenon? How can it be that a scholarly Oxford Don whose comsuming interest was in pre-medieval literature should evoke so deep a response of millions of readers even into the 21st century? This remarkable book provides a provacative, highly original explanation by establishing extensive and striking correlation between Carl Jung's theiry of collective unconsciousness and Tolkein's mythology for Middle-earth. The author points out case after case of how the themes and characters of "The Lord of The Rings" colsely parallel Jung's archetypes and how the entire narrative can be read in Jungian terms as the central human struggle for what Jung called individualzation. The first section is a brief but uncommonly lucid introduction to Jung's theories while the rest is an absorbing and frequently witty commentary on Tolkein as seen through Jungian eyes.
