The Red Book (Philemon)

The Most Influential Unpublished Work in the History of Psychology

When Carl Jung embarked on an extended self-exploration he called his “confrontation with the unconscious,” the heart of it was The Red Book, a large, illuminated volume he created between 1914 and 1930. Here he developed his principle theories—of the archetypes, the collective unconscious, and the process of individuation—that transformed psychotherapy from a practice concerned with treatment of the sick into a means for higher development of the personality.

While Jung considered The Red Book to be his most important work, only a handful of people had ever seen it—until now. Presented in a complete facsimile and translation, it is finally available to scholars and the general public. This extraordinary volume stands as an astonishing example of calligraphy and art, on par with The Book of Kells and the illuminated manuscripts of William Blake.

This publication of The Red Book marks a watershed moment that casts new light on the making of modern psychology.
