Synchronicity and Intellectual Intuition in Kant, Swedenborg, and Jung

Bishop (German, U. of Glasgow) considers the influence of Kant on Jung, with specific attention to the ways Jung’s idiosyncratic (indeed, mistaken) reading of Kant influenced his own understanding of synchronicity. Bishop traces the history and affects of this profound mis-understanding. He also considers the way Jung’s reading of Kant’s IDreams of a Spirit-Seer/I was shaped by his sympathies with Swedenborg.
