Description
For post-Jungian archetypal psychologist James Hillman, the concept of the ego familiar to the work of Freud, Jung, and other psychoanalytic thinkers maintains a almost tyrannical predominance in the tradition of psychoanalysis. The myth of Hercules looms large over the discipline and our lives writ large. For Hillman undue importance of the ego has precipitated a multitude of psychological, social, and political problems. The solution? A break with the ego's oppositionalism and a deep dive into the world of the imagination.Support the podcast:Linktree: https://linktr.ee/acidhorizonAcid Horizon on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcastZer0 Books and Repeater Media Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/zer0repeaterMerch: http://www.crit-drip.comOrder 'The Philosopher's Tarot': https://repeaterbooks.com/product/the-philosophers-tarot/Subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/169wvvhiHappy Hour at Hippel's (Adam’s blog): https://happyhourathippels.wordpress.comRevolting Bodies (Will's Blog): https://revoltingbodies.comSplit Infinities (Craig’s Substack): https://splitinfinities.substack.com/Music: https://sereptie.bandcamp.com/ and https://thecominginsurrection.bandcamp.com/Support the show
