James Hillman (1926 2011) was an American psychologist. He studied at, and then guided studies for, the C. G. Jung Institute in Zurich. He founded a movement toward what he termed 'archetypal psychology'. His 1997 book, 'The Soul's Code: In Search of Character and Calling', was on The New York Times Best Seller List that year. His works and ideas about philosophy and psychology have also been popularized by other authors such as the psychotherapist Thomas Moore. Archetypal psychology is a polytheistic psychology, in that it attempts to recognize the myriad fantasies and myths that shape and are shaped by our psychological lives. The ego is but one psychological fantasy within an assemblage of fantasies. To illustrate the multiple personifications of psyche Hillman made reference to gods, goddesses, demigods and other imaginal figures which he referred to as sounding boards "for echoing life today or as bass chords giving resonance to the little melodies of daily life" although he insisted that these figures should not be used as a 'master matrix' against which we should measure today and thereby decry modern loss of richness. Archetypal psychology is part of the Jungian psychology tradition and related to Jung's original Analytical psychology but is also a radical departure from it in some respects. Whereas Jung's psychology focused on the Self, its dynamics and its constellations (ego, anima, animus, shadow) , Hillman's Archetypal psychology relativizes and deliteralizes the ego and focuses on psyche, or soul, and the archai, the deepest patterns of psychic functioning. ; Audio Book: Cassette Tapes; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall.
