By Eva Gregersen People often ask if it’s possible to change one’s type. The answer to this question is not as straightforward as it would appear. First, a lot of people are introduced to type by a psychologist or coach who tells them that type is inborn and cannot be changed. This is also what...

In Part 1 of this essay, we looked into some of the philosophical reasons why Freud might have found himself attracted to Empedocles. Here in Part 2, we will focus on the psychological reasons instead. 3: Personal Attraction Freud felt a sense of personal admiration for Empedocles. In my opinion, Freud’s admiration for Empedocles was not just a...

By Kelley L. Ross, Ph.D. It was intriguing to read about Pauli’s relationship with Jung and his ideas about using Jung in physics. I’m not sure it works very well, which of course is Pauli’s problem, not that of the admins. Yet I have some criticisms: When you say: “As long as nobody’s looking, observing,...

“No one before Plato [nor anyone] since has managed the extremely difficult art of dramatic debate on philosophic topics with such … fascinating art, aided by the union of dialectical subtlety with mystical yearnings, a subtlety which seems to give a hope to mysticism, and a warrant to transcendentalism.” – G.H.
