Two Cases from Jung's Clinical Practice The Story of Two Sisters and the Evolution of Jungian Analysis

"In this publication, in a very careful study, it is described for the first time how C. G. Jung, in contact with patients, was scientifically inspired by their topics and how this influenced his theories as a result. One sees Jung, his colleagues and patients in a psychotherapeutic field as well as in spiritual exchanges in a time period around 1920.

It is to the author's merit that he has managed to collect little known but very interesting material and placed it within a stimulating context." - Prof. Dr. Verena Kast, President of the Curatorium of the CG Jung Institute Zurich, Küsnacht

"In this book historical scholarship has struck a seam of gold. Based on previously unexamined archival sources and original interviews, the book gives the reader privileged insight into two female patients of Jung's who played key roles in shaping his understanding of such crucial topics as active imagination, transference and countertransference, synchronicity, and the significance of Eastern thought (especially Kundalini yoga and mandalas). De Moura's historical and comparative scholarship is meticulous, his journey of discovery is deeply engaging, and his findings significantly illuminate several important texts of Jung's." - Professor Roderick Main, Department of Psychosocial and Psychoanalytic Studies, University of Essex, UK
