Jung and the Lost Gnostic Gospels
December 7, 1990 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm PST
The Gnostic Gospels, discovered in 1945 in Nag Hammadi, Egypt, contain material that has a profound bearing on the psychology of C.G. Jung. Jug himself showed a deep interest in Gnosticism in general, and in the Nag Hammadi Gnostic writings in particular. The speaker will trace the origins of the Gnostic traditon from the heterodox Jewish tradition through early and later Christianity to its relevance to the psychological and cultural concerns of the present.
