«The Undiscovered Self» is the analytical psychology essay by C. G. Jung, published by Penguin in paperback (128 pages, in English).
Jung analyzes the tension between the individual and mass society: self-knowledge, achieved by becoming aware of the unconscious and of one's own inner nature —the «undiscovered self»—, makes it possible to resist ideological fanaticism. Jung also addresses the duality of the human psyche and the dangers of collective power.
Published on June 27, 2006; full subtitle: The Dilemma of the Individual in Modern Society.
For readers interested in Jung's psychology and in the relationship between the individual and society.
