Author: C. G. Jung File Type: pdf Aion, originally published in German in 1951, is one of the major works of Jungs later years. The central theme of the volume is the symbolic representation of the psychic totality through the concept of the Self, whose traditional historical equivalent is the figure of Christ. Jung demonstrates his thesis by an investigation of the Allegoria Christi, especially the fish symbol, but also of Gnostic and alchemical symbolism, which he treats as phenomena of cultural assimilation. The first four chapters, on the ego, the shadow, and the anima and animus, provide a valuable summation of these key concepts in Jungs system of psychology. ** Aion, originally published in German in 1951, is one of the major works of Jungs later years.

There is a great deal here to illustrate the background of modern mysticism and much which the reader, of whatever orientation, will regard as insight.--Psychiatric Quarterly Aion contains some of Jungs most advanced thinking on the integrative principles of the psyche, and on the relation of matter to the symbolic processes of the collective unconscious. This is difficult ground to explore, but those who attempt the journey will find that their horizons have been surprisingly widened.--Psychosomatic Medicine Aion, originally published in German in 1951, is one of the major works of Jungs later years.

Author: Carolyn McKay File Type: pdf Technological linkages between justice and law enforcement agencies are radically altering criminal process and access to justice for prisoners. Video links, integral to an increasingly networked justice matrix, enable the custodial appearance of prisoners in remote courts and are becoming the dominant form of court appearance for incarcerated defendants. This book argues that the incorporation of such technologies into prisons is not without consequence technologies make a critical difference to prisoners experiences of criminal justice. By focusing on the prison endpoint and engaging with the population most affected by video links the prisoners themselves this book interrogates the legal and conceptual shifts brought about by the technologys displacement of physical court appearance. The central argument is that custodial appearance has created a heightened zone of demarcation between prisoners and courtroom participants. This demarcation is explored through the transformed spatial, corporeal and visual relationships. The cumulative demarcations challenge procedural justice and profoundly recompose prisoners legal experiences in ways not necessarily recognised by policy-makers. **
