Noun

Jungianism (usually uncountable, plural Jungianisms)

  1. (psychology) The theories and clinical principles of Swiss psychologist and psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961), which form the basis of analytical psychology.
    • 1987 Nov. 2, Edwin M. Yoder Jr., "In the Shadow of Jung" (book review of In the Shadow of the White Bushman by Laurens van der Post), Washington Post (retrieved 21 Sep 2015):
      Jungianism is, however, more beneficent, more catholic in its interests and above all more intuitive than Marxism. And—this was one source of friction between Freud and Jung—it is without hostility to the religious and spiritual elements in life.
    • 1998, Michael Leja, "Jackson Pollock: Representing the Unconscious" in Reading American Art (Marianne Doezema and Elizabeth Milroy, eds.), →ISBN, p. 450 (Google preview):
      Jungianism's rich symbolics and its orientation toward transcendent unification provided Pollock with more than artistic materials; they also participated, principally through his therapy, in recasting notions of self and mind faltering under personal stresses and cultural pressures.
