Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Collected Papers on the Psychology of Phantasy
I have often been asked to publish the following papers in book form. I have at length done so, chie?y because they deal with points that are matters of constant inquiry.
In a collection of papers of this sort there is inevitably a good deal of repetition. I regret this, but it is always open to readers to skip passages, whereas those who are unfamiliar with the terms of analytical psychology will find the repetition not without value.
It will easily be seen by those to whom it is not already known, that I am an adherent of Jung's school of analytical psychology, but I have never concealed my great admiration of Freud's work, nor minimized the debt we owe to him for his opportune discovery of dream analysis, and for the formulation of his illuminating theories of neurosis.
The adherents of the Swiss School use Freud's technique of dream analysis, and do not repudiate any of his discovered facts, but they repudiate the claim of some of his disciples that he and his school are in possession of the whole They are unable to believe that his interpretation of the facts is always as unimpeachable as the facts themselves.
