O feijão maneiro
Conheça o primeiro e único livro em que Carl G. Jung explica a teoria sobre a importância dos simbolismos – sobretudo, o simbolismo dos sonhos –, a maior contribuição do psicólogo e filósofo suíço ao conhecimento da mente humana. Aos 83 anos, Jung concebeu esta obra, dedicou os últimos meses de vida a editá-la e terminou apenas dez dias antes de morrer. Fundamental para a psicanálise, este é um dos trabalhos de maior importância no progresso das ciências da psicologia analítica, nos seus métodos revolucionários atuais. Imagens elucidativas complementam o texto e fornecem um “comentário visual” ao pensamento de Jung, a quem se deve os estudos criadores sobre o “inconsciente coletivo”. Dos mitos e da religião às artes plásticas, passando por uma análise do indivíduo e da história da humanidade, O homem e seus símbolos é o legado de um dos maiores médicos de todos os tempos e um dos grandes pensadores do século XX. “Um escritor prolífico.” – Folha de S. Paulo
