Abstract: '...is in the first place a study of the many striking similarities of thought, image, and expression in the work of W.B. Yeats and C.G. Jung. But the book is more than a comparative study: while exploring the Yeats/Jung similarities, it also attempts to account for those common elements by tracing them back in intellectual history to their earliest formulation in presocratic thought and down to that psychic substratum where, for the individual, they have their origin.'
