Who is Carl Jung and why are the courses build on his work?
Carl Gustav Jung is one of the most important psychologists and initiator of depth-psychology from the 20th century. His work was of vital importance in understanding and connecting psychology, the unconscious and the archetypal world. He was the first psychologist to coin the widely used terms such as ‘the shadow’, ‘the collective unconscious’ and ‘archetypes’. His work formed a bridge between the sciences, psychology, theology and wisdom traditions.
