The original typescript for the seminar conducted by Dr. Carl Jung from March to July of 1925 investigating his theories
on analytic psychology. This typescript was compiled from notes taken by Cary F. de Angulo while attending that
seminar.
The text of this typescript was then subsequently expanded and edited by her (with the assistance of Jung himself) before
being multilith printed for distribution to the seminars attendees.

THE SEMINAR
This seminar is an important, personal and intimate view of Jungs thought and methods during the early years of his practice
and teaching including a significant amount of biographical material providing an important and interesting look into
Jungs life and thought.
This 1925 gathering was the first of Jungs seminars to be transcribed and multilith printed here for the benefit of the 27
attendees and other interested parties.
The synopsis for the edited publication of Analytic Psychology (Princeton University Press, 1989) notes that:
For C. G. Jung, 1925 was a watershed year. He turned fifty, visited the Pueblo Indians of New Mexico and the
tribesmen of East Africa, published his first book on the principles of analytical psychology meant for the lay public,
and gave the first of his formal seminars in English.
The seminar, conducted in weekly meetings during the spring and summer, began with a notably personal account of
the development of his thinking from 1896 up to his break with Freud in 1912. It moved on to discussions of the
basic tenets of analytical psychology--the collective unconscious, typology, the archetypes, and the anima/animus
theory. In the elucidation of that theory, Jung analyzed in detail the symbolism in Rider Haggard's She and other
novels. Besides these literary paradigms, he made use of case material, examples in the fine arts, and diagrams.

THE EDITION
This typescripts represent an earlier (and, most likely, the earliest) version of this text. This version precedes the
additions made using other attendees notes and the changes that were made during the final editing process a
process in which Jung himself participated.
Ample proof of these textural differences can be seen from a comparison of the pagination of this typescript with the first
edition multilith copies of this seminar:

In addition, this typescript contains original hand-written edits made to the text that were the basis for the first
multilith printings.
Finally, this copy contain the original hand-written drawings and illustrations that formed the basis for those used in
the later printings (for details, see the Illustrations section in the following description).

THE EDITOR
The text was edited and prepared for printing by Cary F. de Angulo, whose name (and the date November 29th, 1925) appear
on the Foreword page. According to that Foreword, the ten illustrations were done by another member of the class who is
not further identified.
The editor is better known as Cary F. Baynes the name that appears on her widely-read English translation (which was
requested by Jung and includes his Foreword) of the I Ching or Book of Changes. According to William McGuires
Introduction to the publication of this 1925 seminar in 1989, Cary was a friend of Jung and a central figure in the world of
analytic psychology (Analytic Psychology, Princeton University Press, 1989, p. xiii).
Interestingly, Cary was the person that Jung originally asked to assist him with his autobiography, but the job was a
precarious one and she eventually turned it down. Given all the ongoing drama and competition that accompanied the writing
of that book, her decision provides an excellent example of the Zen insight and good judgment that she possessed and
exhibited throughout her entire career.
Jung also entrusted Cary with the difficult task of helping James Joyce's psychotic daughter, Lucia and gave her the
responsibility for dealing with the Joyces during their stay in Zurich.
In addition, Cary met both of her husbands Jaime de Angulo and H.G. Baynes through Jung, each of these men having
traveled extensively with Jung in the past.
Finally, Cary Baynes played a vital role in bringing Jungian psychology to the West Coast of the United States and she was a
key playing in the creation of the Bollingen Foundation in Zurich.

THE EDITS
At least 74 of the 178 pages show neat pencil markings. Some pages have only one mark, while others show more than two
dozen including spacing corrections, accents, underlining, brackets and new paragraph breaks.
Although the Foreword clearly states that "the whole has been reviewed and corrected by Dr. Jung, there is no way to tell if
these corrections and editing marks were made by de Angulo or by Dr. Jung.

CONDITION & NOTES:

Original typescript. The pages are loose and have never been stapled. They are held in a generic, period spring-binder (10
x 12) with stiff boards covered with black coated fabric with minor chipping at the edges.
At the top of the spine, the title [line] / 1925 / [line] has been handwritten in white ink.

Five Original Typescripts covering all six seminars.
$18,000
Five original typescripts for the six seminars conducted by Dr. Carl Jung from November of 1928 to June of 1930 on the
practical applications of his theories on dream analysis. These individual typescripts were compiled by three different
women from their own notes made while attending the seminars. The text of these typescripts were then subsequently
expanded and edited before being multilith printed for distribution to the seminars attendees.
THE SEMINARS
In early November 1928, Jung embarked on the seminar on Dream Analysis In weekly meetings, broken by seasonal
recesses of a month or more, the seminar met until late June 1930. The members convened on Wednesday mornings in the
rooms of the Zurich Psychological Club, in an ivy-covered, turreted mansion in the Gemeinderstrasse that Edith Rockefeller
McCormick had purchased for the Clubs use. Few administrative records of either the seminar or the Club survive.
According to the recollections of surviving members, no tuition fee was paid; there was only a small assessment for tea.
Jungs permission to attend was a requisite, and the members were, or had been, all in the course of analysis with Jung or one
of the few other analysts in Zurich. Though no membership rolls exist, the seminar transcript yields the names of some fifty
persons who contributed to discussion. Certainly there we other members who remained silent, such as Mary Foote
(William McGuire, Dream Analysis, Princeton University Press, 1984, Introduction, pp. x-xi)

THE EDITIONS
These typescripts represent an earlier (and, most likely, the earliest) version of these texts. These versions precede the
additions made using other attendees notes and the changes that were made during the final editing process a
process in which Jung himself participated.
Ample proof of the these textural differences can be seen from a comparison of the first edition multilith copies of these
seminars which are all paginated differently from these original typescripts.

THE EDITORS
Different people were involved in the production of the official record of these six seminars.
In the absence of Cary de Angulo who had transcribed, organized, typed and overseen the printing of the 1925 seminar (she
had moved to Carmel, CA with her new husband, H. G. Baynes), the responsibility for these tasks were taken up by three
different women in succession.
Notes for the autumn 1928 session (Part I) were taken down by Anne Chapin, a teacher at Mount Holyoke College, in
Massachusetts, and were transcribed, multigraphed, and circulated to the members. (William McGuire, Dream Analysis,
Princeton University Press, 1984, Introduction, p. xi)
The meetings during the first half of 1929 [Parts II & III] were recorded by another American woman, Charlotte H.
Deady. (Ibid)
Mary Foote became involved with recording the session that began in October 1929, and letters from Jung to her in
December show that she was editing the transcript (compiled from various members notes) and sending sections of it to Jung
for review. She carried out this role to the end of the seminar the following June [Parts IV, V & VI]. (Ibid)

The RARE TYPESCRIPTS and PRIVATE MULTIGRAPH PRINTINGS of

NINETEEN SEMINARS conducted by C. G. JUNG A Brief Overview
Between 1923 and 1941, Carl Jung delivered and moderated nineteen private seminars (some in English and others in German) on a
variety of different topics. Until 1948, there was no formal Jungian training institute so other than personal analysis with Jung
himself participation in these seminars were the primary method for training Jungian analysts during these early years.
The attendance at these seminars was strictly limited to small, by invitation only groups. A transcription of Jungs comments and his
exchanges with the participants was made during the seminar and then privately printed for distribution to the attending group
members and to other interested insiders.
These privately printed, Multigraphed volumes typically carried a stern warning against further distribution the following being a
typical example that appeared in the front of each volume of the Psychological Analysis of Nietzsches Zarathustra [1934/39]:
This report is strictly for the use of members of the Seminar with the understanding that it shall not be circulated. Dr.
Jung expressly asks that it shall not be lent, nor may any part be quoted for publication, without his permission.
In 1957, Jung dropped this injunction against further dissemination and, to date, nine of these seminars have been published
although these re-issues typically rely on the later, further-edited second edition Multigraph copies of these seminars for their texts.
The dates and titles of these seminars (along with their locations) were as follows:
1923 Human Relationships, Polzeath, England [The Cornwall Seminar]

1925 Analytical Psychology, Zrich

1925 Dreams and Symbolism, Swanage, England [The Swanage Seminar]

1928-1930 Dream Analysis, Zrich

1930 Deutsche Seminar I, Zrich
1931 Deutsche Seminar II, Zrich
1930-1934 Interpretation of Visions, Zrich
1932 Kundalini Yoga, Zrich [The Tantra Yoga Seminars]
1932 Kundalini Yoga, Zrich [the German Transcription / Translation]
1933 Berliner Seminar, Berlin
1933-1941 Modern Psychology, Zrich
1934-1939 Nietzsches Zarathustra, Zrich
1934 Basel Seminar, Basel
1935 Five Lectures, London [The London Lectures also called The Tavistock Lectures]
1935-1936 Lectures at the ETH, Zrich
1936-1937 Dream Symbols, Bailey Island, ME & New York City [The Bailey Island & The New York Seminars]
1936-1937 Seminar ber Kindertrume, Zrich
1937 Bericht ber die Berliner Vortrge, Berlin
1938-1939 Psychologische Interpretations von Kindertrume, Zrich
1938-1939 Psychological Interpretations of Childrens Dreams [the English Translation]
1939-1940 Psychologische Interpretation von Kindertrume, Zrich
In addition, there were two contemporary Indexes compiled and printed as an aid in navigating three of the larger seminars:
1932 Index to Dream Analysis & Visions
1939 Index to Analytic Psychology, Dream Analysis & Visions
This comprehensive list from Lisa Ress General Bibliography of C. G. Jungs Writings [The Collected Works of C. G. Jung,
Volume 19, Princeton University Press, 1979, pp. 209-215] notes that sixteen of these nineteen seminars were originally published
as multigraphed typescript[s] and implies that two more were also printed in this same manner. The first seminar the 1923
Cornwall Seminar is an unpublished typescript (i.e. not multigraphed but typed carbon copies).
The bibliographer did not get a chance to inspect two of these rare Multigraph printings the 1934 Basel Seminar and the 1937 Berlin
Bericht although Multigraph copies are known to exist and information on these two printings is supplied. Ress bibliography
implies that there is no known copy of the 1935/36 ETH Lectures since her listing lacks even the most basic information on this
publication.
The editor, William McGuire, has provided a lovely glimpse of what it was like to attend one of these very special and private
seminars with Jung in his Introduction to the 1989 Princeton University Press publication of Jungs 1925 Notes on the Seminar in
Analytical Psychology (pp. x-xi):

When, on Wednesday morning at eleven Doctor Jung enters the long room at the
Psychology Club, where his Seminar is held, smiling with a deep friendliness at this
or that face, the brown portfolio which he hugs to his side seems to be the repository
of this joint account the collective account of a small international group whose
common interest is the psyche. An involuntary hush falls on the room as Jung
himself stands quiet and grave for a moment, looking down at his manuscript as a
sailor might look at his compass, relating it to the psychological winds and waves
whose impact he had felt on his passage from the door. The hush in the assembly
means not only reverence but intense expectation. What world adventure shall we
have today with this creative thinker? What question, like the stroke of a bronze
bell, will he leave ringing in our minds? What drastic vision of our age will he give
us that will help us to lose our sense of problems, subjective and oppressive, and
move into a more universal and objective realm.
[McGuire quoting from Doctor Jung, A Portrait, Harpers, May, 1931]
Jung moderated these seminars in a variety of venues around the world from the
United States (Bailey Island, Maine & New York City) to England (London and two
more remote locations) and, on the Continent, from Berlin, Germany to Basel and
Zrich, Switzerland. Almost two-thirds of these seminars were conducted in Zrich at
the Eidgenssische Technische Hochschule (the Swiss Federal Technical University).
According to Jungs own estimate, the ETH lecture hall in Zrich, which was used for so many of these seminars, could
accommodate 60 seats (Sonu Shamdasani, The Psychology of Kundalini, Princeton University Press, 1996, p. xxxvii) although
some of the seminars, especially the early ones, did not have that many participants.
In the later published versions of these seminars, several of the Introductions contain a list of known participants to these seminars
although it is clearly indicated that these lists are meant to be only of people who were definitely in attendance and does not include
others who might have anonymously attended one or more of the seminars sessions. Those numbers are as follows: Analytic
Psychology [1925] 26 attendees; Dream Analysis [1928/30] 53 attendees; Visions [1930/34] - 80 attendees; Kundalini Yoga [1932]
24 attendees; Zarathustra [1934/39] 74 attendees. NOTE that these numbers are composites and include people who may have
attended just some of these seminar sessions. One attendee, Barbara Hannah, has stated in her book, Jung, His Life and Work (B.P.
Putnams Sons, New York 1976) that never did [attendance] exceed about fifty (p. 193).
There is little known about exactly how many Multigraph copies were printed for each of these seminars. Between 1934 and 1939, the
Zarathustra Seminar was published in ten volumes with an index that was issued in 1942. From the records preserved in the Mary
Foote Collection held at Yales Beinecke Rare Book Library, we know that the first five of these books had 100 copies printed. This
number went up to 120 for the next two volumes and then up to 150 copies for each for the final three books. The concluding
comprehensive Index was printed in an edition of just 110 copies. Certainly there was significant interest in these seminars among
Jungian analysts and the ten volumes went into a second Multigraph edition early in the 1940s.
Further circumstantial evidence regarding the number of copies typically printed comes from the six numbered copies of Jungs
seminars offered in this catalog items #48, 49, 55. 58, 59 & 61 which are numbered 61, 130, 102, 35, 123 and 17 respectively.
These numbers imply a similarly limited press run for these private printings of Jungs seminars and underline their rarity.
There were a variety of editors for these seminar printings although Mary Foote was the person who was most frequently
responsible for their production. Clearly, Ms. Foote was the individual who, after assuming her role as editor in October of 1929, set
the standard for all subsequent transcriptions and printings of Jungs seminars.
These scarce privately printed records of Jungs seminars are valuable and important for a number of reasons not least of which is
the ability to see one of the more influential minds of the 20th century at work in a charged and challenging, but collegial atmosphere.
In these seminars, Jung was clearly working out the details of his ideas and testing the validity and applicability of his methods in
relation to a wide variety of topics all the while teaching students by actually talking them through a practical application of his
theories in relation to the topic at hand. In addition, the first seminar of 1925 contains a remarkable number of biographical details that
are supplied in Jungs efforts to explain his own growth as a man, a thinker and a psychologist.
