The Correspondence of Victoria Ocampo, Count Keyserling and C. G. Jung (EPUB)

Unveiling the Fascinating Correspondence of Victoria Ocampo, Count Keyserling, and C. G. Jung

The Correspondence of Victoria Ocampo, Count Keyserling, and C. G. Jung is a captivating book that revolves around two pivotal meetings: Victoria Ocampo and Hermann von Keyserling’s encounter in 1929, and Ocampo and Carl Gustav Jung’s meeting in 1934. These encounters not only had a profound impact on the lives of these influential figures but also led to significant repercussions in both their personal and public spheres.

A Glimpse into the Lives of Three Visionary Thinkers

In the first section of the book, the reader is taken on a journey through the chronicles of these two meetings, which proved to be turning points in the lives of the protagonists. The subsequent sections comprise the fascinating correspondence and other writings that preceded and followed these encounters, meticulously translated from French, German, and Spanish, much of which has been made available for the first time.

C. G. Jung was so captivated by Keyserling’s account of his encounter with Ocampo that he described it as “one of the most beautiful animus-anima stories I have ever heard.” However, this captivating narrative can also be interpreted through the lenses of early-twentieth-century feminism, gender and sexual politics, the colonizing European gaze on the Americas, Argentina’s cultural complexities, typological impasses, and the transformative power of Eros and words.

A Treasure Trove for Analytical Psychologists, Historians, and General Readers

The tumultuous relationships and power dynamics among these three influential figures will undoubtedly fascinate analytical psychologists, historians of psychological disciplines and South America, as well as general readers who are drawn to the complexities of human relationships and the interplay of minds.
