SUBJECTS COVERED

DESCRIPTION

Through the work of James Hillman, Henry Corbin and Mary Watkins, amongst others, this seminar will explore the Imaginal as a real and ‘embodied’ world-between matter and spirit, body and mind- a world of transcendence through immanence. It is a world which requires of us a certain quality of participation, an ethics of engagement and intimacy where the ego is not the only or primary subjectivity, where it learns to see the Other seeing it, where the task of individuation ceases to be just a personal individual quest, but a lived experience of our finding our place in the whole, becoming a conscious part of anima mundi dreaming.

SPEAKER BIOGRAPHY
