Jung, His Life and Work: A Biographical Memoir

Published originally in 1976, this work has become a classic retelling of Jung's life and work by one of his most dedicated followers and intimate friends. Now back in print, this work deserves to occupy a place of importance in every Jungian library. It is a warm biographical account filled with anecdotes and made vibrantly alive by the wit and personality of a person who was herself transformed by Jung's spirit and analytic methods. Barbara Hannah, a painter and the daughter of an English Bishop, arrived in Zurich at a time when Jung was beginning his major life's work. She outlived him by some twenty years, teaching at the Jung Institute in Zurich and meeting with analysands until her death in the early 1980's at the age of 95.
