The Roots of Jewish Consciousness, Volume Two

Explore the spiritual wisdom of Jewish tradition in this previously unpublished two-part work by philosopher and physician Erich Neumann. Volume Two, Hasidism, focuses on the psychological insights found in Hasidic legends, Talmudic texts, and Kabbalistic mysteries. Neumann offers alternatives to the legalism and anti-feminine bias of traditional Judaism, providing a path to psychological wholeness. This unique work includes a foreword by Moshe Idel and previously unpublished essays on developmental psychology. A must-read for Jungian analysts, psychotherapists, Jewish scholars, and those interested in comparative religion.
