Product Description
Product Description
Jungian analyst and scholar Siegmund Hurwitz, who received his training from C G Jung, Toni Wolff and M L von Franz, wrote his all-encompassing work on "Lilith" over a period of some 30 years. On the basis of original texts, he presents the archetypal background of the myth of Lilith and shows the influences it has today on the roles of modern men and women. A historical treatise illustrated with modern case material and extremely well-received in the years since its original publication in German, it now becomes accessible to English language readers.

Format:Paperback
This is made up of two parts, one that deals with the history of Lilith, and one that focuses on the psychological implications for today. I found the historical part to be very interesting and very objective, and it contains a lot of details. The author takes us through probably every mention of Lilith in every culture. The other part, though, is more about men than women. And even the account of the role of Lilith in the psyche of men, which I still did find interesting, is a little too short and not conclusive enough. Also, as a woman, I would have liked to read more about what this whole thing means to women! In any case, the first part is detailed and objective enough to allow us to try our own interpretation. I would say that it is useful to have an objective look at what actually is available historically and culturally.

This Book is definitely not for the average reader! This author, gets way too indepth on areas that are not even interesting to the person who just wants to learn about the story of Lillith. Reads more like a text book. If your looking for an easy to understand book on Lillith, this isn't it.
