A landmark work in analytical psychology, Psychology and Western Religion brings together C.G. Jung's most incisive writings on the psychological dimensions of Christianity and Western spiritual traditions. Jung argues that religious experience is not merely a matter of faith or doctrine, but a profound psychological reality rooted in the depths of the human unconscious. The collection presents his penetrating analyses of key theological concepts — including the Trinity, the nature of evil, and the symbolism of Christ — through the lens of his theory of the psyche. Translated by R.F.C. Hull, whose authoritative renderings made Jung's German texts accessible to the English-speaking world, this volume stands as an essential point of entry for anyone seeking to understand the intersection of depth psychology and religious experience. Scholarly yet deeply provocative, it challenges both the theologian and the psychologist to reconsider the foundations of Western spiritual life.
