Hope you enjoy what will serve as an intro to The Red Book. Visually stunning and supremely interesting, I cant wait to dive deep into this text and Jung's personal journey.
Wow. I read the reader's edition a few years back. it made an impression but to see the handwritten latin and the luminous imagery is just incredible. Jung encountered the wise old man while forging this journal as a young man and i tend to think of the Liber Novus as a true expression of that archetype, a distillation of the master-pupil dynamic in dreams. Have you read Magister Ludi by Hesse? Its narrative really complements the more astral red book and they share symbolism. Wilhelm Meister's Apprencticeship reveals other aspects of this too i feel. The co-creative faculty in our minds eye
