When C.G. Jung embarked on an extended self-exploration, his "confrontation with the unconscious"; became the heart of The Red Book, a large, illuminated volume he created between 1914 and 1930. While Jung considered The Red Book his most important work, only a handful of people had ever seen it before it was published in October 2009. Intended for scholars, yet accessible to the general reader, the 416 page volume is being called the most influential unpublished work in the history of psychology. This lecture by Sonu Shamdasani, editor of The Red Book will shed light on just how one might approach this central work in Jung's oeuvre.

Sonu Shamdasani, Ph.D., is General Editor of the Philemon Foundation and the Philemon Reader in Jung History at the Wellcome Trust Centre for the History of Medicine at University College London. He is a historian of psychology and psychiatry, and his research follows two intersecting verticies: the reconstruction of the formation of modern psychological disciplines and therapeutics from the mid-nineteenth century onwards, and a reconstruction of the formation of work of Jung, based on primary archival materials. He is the author of Cult Fictions: C.G. Jung and the Founding of Analytical Psychology, Jung and the Making of Modern Psychology: The Dream of a Science, Jung Stripped Bare by his Biographers, Even, and (with Mikkel Borch-Jacobsen) Le Dossier Freud: Enquête sur l'Histoire de la Psychanalyse. He is the editor of C.G. Jung, The Psychology of Kundalini Yoga; Michael Fordham, Analyst-Patient Interaction: Collected Papers on Technique; Thêodore Flournoy, From India to the Planet Mars: A Case of Multiple Personality with Imaginary Languages and (with Michael Munchow), Speculations after Freud, Philosophy, Psychoanalysis and Culture.
