G. Jung, Emma Jung, and Marie-Louise von Franz. A first-generation Jungian psychologist, she was one of the original members of the Psychological Club of Zürich and one of the founders of the Jung Institute in Zürich. She lectured extensively in Switzerland and England and wrote several books on C. G. Jung and Jungian psychology. These two volumes present her psychological analysis of the animus gleaned from handwritten notes, typed manuscripts, previously published articles, her own drafts of her lectures, and notes taken by those present. She tackled the theme of the animus with a comprehensiveness unsurpassed in Jungian literature. Her insight and vigor stem from a personal grappling with her own animus while integrating the experience and reflections of many psychotherapists who were working directly with C. G. Jung. Authenticity and comprehensiveness were priorities in editing this work as well as preserving the excellence and comprehensiveness of her work on the animus—a most complex and vexing topic—while rendering the wonderful natural spirit of Barbara Hannah herself. Themes include the case of the sixteenth-century nun, Jeanne Fery, the animus in the Book of Tobit, literature generally (the Brontës in particular), and the meaning of the animus for modern women. Volume 1 is the first volume in this two volume set and both are part of the Polarities of the Psyche series; the first two books in the series are Lectures on Jung’s Aion and The Archetypal Symbolism of Animals. Barbara Hannah (1891–1986) was born in England. She went to Zürich in 1929 to study with Carl Jung and lived in Switzerland the rest of her life. A close associate of Jung until his death, she was a practicing psychotherapist and lecturer at the C.G. Jung Institute. Her books available from Chiron include The Archetypal Symbolism of Animals; Encounters with the Soul; Jung, His Life and Work: A Biographical Memoir; and Striving Toward Wholeness. Review: Fascinating - Fascinating book, very well written in a style that draws you in (i.e. not 'dry'). Very clear on a subject not publicised/explored enough. Review: Animus in a jar - An Interesting and useful perspective on management of the animus. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 527,556 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 521 in Carl Jung | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 33 Reviews | ## Images ![The Animus: The Spirit of Inner Truth in Women, Volume 1 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51vBpAHJYvL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fascinating *by R***M on 28 January 2013* Fascinating book, very well written in a style that draws you in (i.e. not 'dry'). Very clear on a subject not publicised/explored enough. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Animus in a jar *by M***D on 5 May 2017* An Interesting and useful perspective on management of the animus. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting but dated *by N***I on 30 December 2021* I enjoyed this book and just started the second volume. Very traditional notions of gender in both volumes which may contain some truth and wisdom at times but at others become too restrictive. We need some modern Jungian analyst writers who have more belief in the fact that gender is evolving and not rigidly fixed and can think more deeply about gender equality issues. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Animus: The Spirit of Inner Truth in Women, Volume 1 - The Animus: Spirit of the Inner Truth in Women, Volume 2 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/311371968-the-animus-the-spirit-of-inner-truth-in-women-volume](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/311371968-the-animus-the-spirit-of-inner-truth-in-women-volume) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-10-05*
