At Home In The Language Of The Soul by Josephine Evetts-Secker

At Home In The Language Of The Soul by Josephine Evetts-Secker

C. G. Jung saw every act of speech as a psychic event. This book aims to deepen our consciousness of psyche's speech as it occurs in our professional discourses, in the psychoanalytic encounter, in dreams, fairy tales, myths and poetry.

‘A remarkable and uniquely important work, At Home in the Language of the Soul reveals the soul energies in the language that houses itEssential reading for all those seeking psyche in/through words, Josephine Evetts-Secker gives to our language its archetypal essences, its making and poiesis. For therapists, artists, and seekers, this wonderful book diagnoses how very simple language structures form, direct, enact and embody the living psyche. At Home in the Language of the Soul is delicately written with the passionate clarity of a diamond. It is the book of life in our words; reading it is to enter the enchantments of soulful creation.’ - Susan Rowland, PhD, author, Jung as a Writer and C.G. Jung in the Humanities

‘This book does for words what C.G. Jung and James Hillman did for images – discovering amazing depths in prepositions and even in grammar and syntax. It made me realize that, truly, in the beginning was the word – and in the middle and in the end. Not so much a syntax of the soul, more assertion that syntax is soul. A serious (though deft and lucid) challenge to the primacy of image.’ - Professor Andrew Samuels, University of Essex
