James Hillman: The Force of Character and the Lasting Life (audio)

James Hillman speaking about his book The Force of Character and the Lasting Life. Check out my 5-week coaching program inspired by Hillman's book The Soul's Code: http://brianjames.ca/personalmyth “Modern psychology, regardless of school, understands the assimilation of events into a “me” to be a function of character. The schools of psychology use other words for character, such as “personality,” “ego,” “self,” “behavioral organization,” “integrative structure,” “identity,” “temperament.” These substitute terms fail to characterize the styles of assimilation that are the hallmarks of individuality. We each respond to the world differently, handling our lives in a particular style. The word “character” implies a bundle of traits and qualities, habits and patterns; it requires descriptive language such as we find in character references, letters of recommendation, primary school report cards, scripts and novels, performance criticism, obituaries. “Ego,” “self,” “identity” are bare abstractions, telling us nothing of the human being they supposedly inhabit and govern. At best, these words refer to the unifying sameness of people while neglecting their unique differences.” Excerpt From The Force of Character: And the Lasting Life, James Hillman #jameshillman #psychology #jungianpsychology #soul #soulwork #aging #archetypal #depthpsychology
