{"product_id":"imagination-is-reality-roberts-avens-9780882140933","title":"Imagination Is Reality: Western Nirvana in Jung, Hillman, Barfield, and Cassirer","description":"This small book is the first comprehensive essay to place archetypal psychology within a major tradition of modern thought-the tradition of mythical thinking-and to recognize imagination as the primal force and basic reality of human life. By drawing upon the writings of four twentieth-century thinkers, Roberts Avens clarifies the post-Jungian direction of psychology as it moves toward poetic and polytheistic imagination. He then compares the radical achievements of this direction in resolving the 'ego-question' with the methods and ideas of the East: Buddhism, Tantrism, Zen, and Vedanta. Avens's grasp of understanding, easy familiarity with his subject, and refined insights together make this book an introductory text and an advance into new territory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Roberts Avens\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0882140930\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780882140933\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Spring Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/26\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.32d","brand":"Roberts Avens","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43982379876607,"sku":"9780882140933","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8321cced-14fe-4cff-8393-85aae3652ff9.jpg?v=1683260822","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/imagination-is-reality-roberts-avens-9780882140933","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
