This volume introduces readers to the work of Jungian psychoanalyst Ladson Hinton and his development of thought in the fields of psychoanalysis and existential philosophy throughout his career.
Working as an analyst for nearly 50 years, strongly emphasizing humility with a central focus on shame and temporality, this new volume edited by friend and colleague Hessel Willemsen encompasses reflections and writings dating from his emergence as a young analyst in 1975 through to present day. Mindful of the deep and considerable changes in contemporary society, his work provides a helpful lens for understanding how aspects of our politics, technologies and social media underlie our contemporary loss of freedom of thought and experience amidst our time of ominous transitions. Chapters cover topics such as death, foolishness and shame, reconnecting with our animal soul, temporality and Jung's theoretical position on existential philosophy, among many others.
Psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, philosophers, anthropologists and academics and students engaged in cultural studies and critical theory will gain valuable insights from this book's rich and engaging variety of perspectives.
