About this book

Have you ever tried to understand what the psychological method of "discovering and finding or figuring out" is based on? In Oedipus Variations James Hillman takes on the Oedipal idea of psychoanlaysis and its father Freud. He exposes analysis and its myth of the search for identity which is still with us is still blinding us is still trying to turn people into Oedipus on both sides of the analytical couch. Karl Kernyi explores the variations of the ancient myth along with its more dramatic versions from Seneca to T.S. Eliot.
