Final Review: Memories, Dreams, Reflections by Carl Jung

As a lover of opera, I was so happy to read that, after graduation, he used what little money had left to see Bizet’s Carmen and that it “intoxicated and overwhelmed” him on his first trip to the theatre (110).

True to the subjective nature of psychiatry, Jung writes that he has “neither the desire nor the capacity to stand outside [himself] and observe [his] fate in a truly objective way [and that] in the end, man is an event which cannot judge itself, but, for better or worse, is left to the judgment of others” (113).
