It combines an original student-friendly introduction to Jung, his life and work, his treatment of gender and the range of post-Jungian gender theory, with new research linking Jung to deconstruction, post-Freudian feminism, postmodernism, the sublime, and the postmodern body.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFeminism has neglected Jung to its own detriment. While evaluating the reasons for this neglect, \u003ci\u003eJung: A Feminist Revision\u003c\/i\u003e uses the diversity of feminist critical tools from historical analysis to poststructuralism. In a fresh and illuminating study, this book provides both a critique of Jung and demonstrates his positive potential for future feminisms. New theories are explored which develop relationships between the work of Jung and Jacques Lacan, Luce Irigaray, H l ne Cixous, Julia Kristeva and Judith Butler. Particular attention is paid to the growth of post-Jungian studies of gender. This includes a cogent study of the tradition of Jungian feminism that looks to 'the feminine principle' and narratives of goddesses. Jungian 'goddess' feminism's enduring appeal is re-examined in the context of postmodern re-thinking of subjectivity and gender.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book proposes a re-orientation of Jungian studies in its relationship to feminism. The result is an accessible text that introduces Jung and sets out his relevance to contemporary feminisms.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book will be essential reading for undergraduates and postgraduates studying feminist theory, psychoanalytical theory, literature and psychology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Susan Rowland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0745625177\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780745625171\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Polity Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/15\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.12h x 6.16w x 0.58d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2002 pg. 361","brand":"Susan Rowland","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43925859991807,"sku":"9780745625171","price":31.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_b2ab3d40-aec2-49be-a667-cbf1e2567a88.jpg?v=1681079797","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jung-susan-rowland-9780745625171","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
