H. Rider Haggard
b. 6-22-1856; England
d. 5-14-1925; London

H. Rider Haggard, who is best known for his adventure stories such as, “King Solomon's Mines” and the Allan Quartermain character inspired by explorer Frederick Selous, was the founder of the Lost World literary genre. His novel She was commented on by Carl G. Jung to illustrate the concept of the anima.

H. Rider Haggard quotes ~
• “Out of the dark we came, into the dark we go. Like a storm-driven bird at night we fly out of the Nowhere; for a moment our wings are seen in the light of the fire, and, lo! we are gone again into the Nowhere.” King Solomon's Mines
• “Hard is it to die, because our delicate flesh doth shrink back from the worm it will not feel, and from that unknown which the winding-sheet doth curtain from our view. But harder still, to my fancy, would it be to live on, green in the leaf and fair, but dead and rotten at the core, and feel that other secret worm of recollection gnawing ever at the heart.” She

Hermann Hesse
b. 7-2-1877; Calw, Württemberg, Germany
d. 8-9-1962

Author Hermann Hesse wrote his novel Demien, a story of individuation, in a three week period in 1917, after undergoing Jungian analysis.

Hesse was awarded the 1946 Nobel Prize for Literature for The Glass Bead Game.

Hermann Hesse quotes ~
• “There's no reality except the one contained within us. That's why so many people live an unreal life. They take images outside them for reality and never allow the world within them to assert itself.”
• “If you hate a person, you hate something in him that is part of yourself. What isn't part of ourselves doesn't disturb us.” (projection)

James Joyce
b. 2-2-1882; Dublin, Ireland
d. 1-13-1941; Zurich

Writer and poet James Augustine Aloysius Joyce is widely considered to be one of the most influential writers of the 20th century and a key figure in the development of the modernist novel. Joyce is best known for his landmark novel Ulysses (1922), the short-story collection Dubliners (1914), and the novels A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916) and Finnegans Wake (1939).

Joyce's daughter Lucia, who suffered from schizophrenia, sought treatment from Jung so Joyce was familiar with Jung's ideas. Jung also had written an analysis of Ulysses in 1934 where he described Joyce's novel as an exploration of the spiritual condition of modern man. In Finnegans Wake Joyce joked with Jung's concepts of anima and animus.

James Joyce quotes ~
• “Whatever spark of gift I possess has been transmitted to Lucia, and has kindled a fire in her brain.”
• “A man's errors are his portals of discovery.”
• “Better pass boldly into that other world, in the full glory of some passion, than fade and wither dismally with age.”
• “Irresponsibility is part of the pleasure of all art; it is the part the schools cannot recognize.”
• “Three quarks for Muster Mark!”

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
b. 10-15-1844; Rocken bei Lutzen, Germany (Prussia)
d. 8-25-1900; Weimar

Friedrich Nietzsche, a 19th century philosopher, deeply questioned religion, morality, culture and science of an increasingly objectified and materialistic world.

Carl Gustav Jung read Nietzsche as a student, and between 1934-1939 “spoke informally to members of his inner circle about [Nietzche's Zarathustra] whose works ... provided the philosophical sources of many of his own psychological and metapsychological ideas.”

FYI - When you click on the poster link you will see a page of posters related to Nietzsche, one of them will be on his controversial quote “God is dead.” with a response by the poster designer speaking for God “Nietzsche is dead.” While seemingly clever, we suggest that they are ignorant and didn't understand Nietzsche's cry was of pain and sorrow - he was crying out against an increasingly materialistic, industrialized world that no longer had the capacity for God, but trusted their own power.

Wolfgang Ernst Pauli
b. 4-25-1900; Vienna, Austria
d. 12-15-1958; Switzerland

Physicist Wolfgang Pauli, awarded the 1945 Nobel Prize in Physics, consulted with Carl Gustav Jung on his deeply archetypal dreams, documented in “Psychology and Alchemy”. Their letters are published as “Atom and Archetype”.

Wolfgang Pauli quotes ~
• “Later, however, I came to recognize the objective nature of these dreams or fantasies ... Thus it was that I gradually came to acknowledge that such fantasies or dreams are neither meaningless nor purely arbitrary but rather convey a sort of ‘second meaning’ of the terms applied.” ~Letter to Carl Jung, June 16, 1948
• “Both of us [seem] to agree that the future of Jung's ideas is not with [psycho-] therapy... but with a unitarian, holistic concept of nature and the position of man in it.” ~Letter to Markus Fierz regarding Jung's ideas, December 25, 1950

Jackson Pollock
b. 1-28-1912; Cody, Wyoming
d. 8-11-1956; Springs, NY (car accident)

Abstract Expressionist artist Jackson Pollock was influenced by Jung's theory of archetypes.

Jackson Pollock quotes ~
• “Energy and motion made visible – memories arrested in space.” ~quoted in Abstract Expressionism
• “The modern artist is living in a mechanical age and we have a mechanical means of representing objects in nature such as the camera and photograph. The modern artist, it seems to me, is working and expressing an inner world – in other words – expressing the energy, the motion and the other inner forces... ...the modern artist is working with space and time, and expressing his feelings rather than illustrating.” ~as quoted in Abstract Expressionism
