From Types to Images

Moving Jungian psychology from types to images, to an image-based archetypal psychology, is James Hillman's concern in this volume. This volume leads from Hillman's principal essay on typology, "Egalitarian Typologies versus the Perception of the Unique," to his expansive "Inquiry into Image."



Hillman instigates an active re-visioning, re-imagining, of psychology as a self-generative activity of the soul: "An image is given by the imagining perspective and can only be perceived by an act of imagining."

Mutarea psihologiei jungiene de la tipuri la imagini, la o psihologie arhetipala bazata pe imagini, este preocuparea lui James Hillman in acest volum. Acest volum duce de la principalul eseu al lui Hillman despre tipologie, „Tipologii egalitare versus perceptia unicului”, la „Inquiry into Image” expansiva. Hillman instiga o revizuire activa, re-imaginare a psihologiei ca activitate autogenerativa. a sufletului: „O imagine este data de perspectiva imaginara si poate fi perceputa doar printr-un act de a imagina”.
