Time, timelessness, and history

This article is a review of the book by Angeliki Yiassemides entitled Time and Timelessness: Temporality in the Theory of Carl Jung (London and New York, Routledge, 2014). By returning to the internal, chronological dynamic of Jung’s oeuvre, the author shows how considering our collective history and putting it in perspective opens as a third part between the temporality of our ordinary lives and the timelessness that would be the fact of the unconscious, and how, as a result, questions of heritage and ethics arise.
