Hello everyone, I have been looking forward to this conversation, for a while. In this episode of the podcast I am speaking with Dr Glen Slater about the role of James Hillman within Depth Psychology. Amongst other things we take up the topic of ‘From Jung to Hillman’, explore senex and puer, further(and look at it within the current time), and we have a conversation about the orthodox critique of Hillman within the Jung world(touching upon David Tacey’s criticism in his article James Hillman: the unmaking of a psychologist). I will send later a copy of Glen’s article ‘Between Jung and Hillman’.
Glen Slater, Ph.D. has taught for over two decades at Pacifica Graduate Institute where he currently chairs the Jungian and Archetypal Psychology Program. He has written articles and book chapters for Jungian publications, edited the third volume of James Hillman’s Uniform Edition, Senex and Puer, and co-edited the essay collection, Varieties of Mythic Experience. His research and writing interests concern Jung and film, the psychology of religion, and depth psychology and technology. His book on Jung and posthumanism will be published in fall 2023.
