Summary

The black sun, an ages-old image of darkness, has not been treated hospitably in the modern world. Modern psychology has seen darkness primarily as a negative force, something to move through and beyond, but it actually has an intrinsic importance to the human psyche. In this book, Jungian analyst Stanton Marlan reexamines the paradoxical image of the black sun and the meaning of darkness in Western culture.

Author Biography

Stanton Marlan is a Jungian analyst in private practice in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and the president of the Pittsburgh Society of Jungian Analysts
