Stephan A. Hoeller's The Gnostic Jung and the Seven Sermons to the Dead examines the relationship between C. G. Jung's analytical psychology and the ancient tradition of Gnosis. At its centre is Jung's mysterious Seven Sermons to the Dead, or Septem Sermones ad Mortuos, together with Hoeller's interpretation of its imagery and its place in Jung's intellectual and spiritual development. The book explores themes including Gnosticism, archetypal psychology, the unconscious, myth, symbolism and the search for psychological wholeness. Hoeller treats the Seven Sermons not simply as an isolated curiosity but as an important window into Jung's engagement with religious and esoteric traditions. It is particularly relevant to readers of Jung, Gnosticism, Western esotericism, comparative religion and the history of depth psychology. This is a particularly interesting title for a Jung or Gnosticism collection, and the specific edition should be assessed from the photographs and bibliographic details of this copy.
