Description
Camilla Paglia:
"Neumann’s first published book was Depth Psychology and a New Ethic (1949), which interpreted the “scapegoating” of the Nazi era as a projection of repressed cultural and psychological forces. In the same year appeared his first magnum opus, The Origins and History of Consciousness, with a foreword by Jung. In this book, my personal favorite of his works, Neumann argues that each individual’s psychological growth recapitulates the history of humanity. He charts what he calls “the mythological stages in the evolution of consciousness”: the creation myth, the hero myth, and the transformation myth, identified with the Egyptian god Osiris. Here he also presents his idiosyncratic theory of centroversion in ego formation—a blend of extraversion and introversion." (http://www.bu.edu/arion/files/2010/03/Paglia-Great-Mother1.pdf)
