In Aion Carl Jung attempted to demonstrate how the Self as God-image revealed itself through the course of Christian history. In this lecture Edward Edinger t,ride to make Aion more accessible.
Jung's Aion laid the foundation for a whole new scholarly discipline that could be called archetypal psychohistory. It applies the insights of depth psychology to the analysis of cultural development, here focusing on the idea of the God-image, or Self, as it has evolved over 2,000 years of Western thinking.
