​C.G. Jung’s comments about the nature of love — love between men and women, love of oneself, parental love, love for one’s fellow man, love’s role in religion and in our concept of the divine — are expressed most revealingly in an informal manner in his many seminars. In this course, we will explore Jung’s often challenging views on the formidable obstacles to love, on the nature of radical self-acceptance, on the thorny problem of love without understanding, and on power of love for transcendence. In readings and class discussion, we will explore how Jung’s ideas, rich with meaning and wisdom, contribute to our understanding of love.
