Neumann recommended a \"cultural therapy\" that he thought would redress a \"fundamental ignorance\" about feminine and masculine psychology, and he looked for societal healing to a \"matriarchal consciousness\" that forms the bridge between the feminine and the creative. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Brought together here for the first time, the essays in the book discuss the psychological stages of woman's development, the moon and matriarchal consciousness, Mozart's \u003ci\u003eMagic Flute, \u003c\/i\u003e the meaning of the earth archetype for modern times, and the fear of the feminine. In Mozart's fantastic world, Neumann saw a true \u003ci\u003eAuseinandersetzung\u003c\/i\u003e--the conflict and coming-to-terms with each other of the matriarchal and the patriarchal worlds. Developing such a synthesis of the feminine and the masculine in the psychic reality of the individual and of the collective was, he argued, one of the fundamental, future-oriented tasks of both the society and the individual.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Erich Neumann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0691034737\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780691034737\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Princeton University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/24\/1994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.99h x 5.07w x 0.75d","brand":"Erich Neumann","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43994127499519,"sku":"9780691034737","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4e482e31-5007-49d3-96c2-e7a4ddf8ff3c.jpg?v=1683328288","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-fear-of-the-feminine-erich-neumann-9780691034737","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
