Subject: This eight volume contains traces of many peregrinations which brings together in one place multifarious writings that conjoin philosophical with psychological work. The common thread is the philosophical underedge of archetypal psychology: an underedge that links philosophical analysis with psychological matters, assuring the intimate indwelling of each in the other. This shows in Part Two which explicitly metaphysical oriented, the basic distinction between cosmos and universe -- local world versus the ALL, along with Proclus's idea of "epistrophe, "--Reversion - to an archetypal origin. James Hillman is a relentless critic of "Unio mentalis", being single-minded, of one mind discussed "one" work in this book, that is a psychic work, a work of psychic speleology and verbal elaboration.Summary: ... Taken together in their conjoint alchemy, they constitute the equivalent of the philosopher's stone. Internationally recognized Jungian, psychologist, teacher and theorist James Hillman, Ph. D., presents different themes of psychoanalysis regarding the family relationship which influences individual psychology, language, judgement, social behavior, respect of others and environment, and being responsible human being related to ecology and cosmology. The fantasy of the family remains the dominating theme of psychotherapy and psychotheory. James Hillman proposes the 21st century's new urbanism, one that integrates City and Nature into a harmonious whole. In order to gain a successful and harmonious life one must lead others. Hillman shows how the artful leader uses each of two dozen kinds of power with finesse and subtlety. Power, we often forget, has many faces, many different expressions. "Empowerment," writes best-selling Jungian analyst James Hillman, "comes from understanding the widest spectrum of possibilities for embracing power" to help reaching the cyberspace as an archival fantasy which seduces the mind into forgetting time.
