ユング『タイプ論』とプラグマティズム : 「個人的方程式（persönliche Gleichung）」としての諸類型

Abstract

The life and theory of Carl Gustav Jung have been interpreted from the "Freudcentric" view, because of the uncritical acceptance of his autobiography. In recent years, Sonu Shamdasani has discovered some omissions from its manuscript, and the relationships between Jung and essential people other than Freud have been revealed. One of the most important persons is William James, the American philosopher of pragmatism. Jung had met James only once, but he confessed that he had always regarded James as his "model." In this paper, we focus on the early works of Jung, especially his typology, and make it clear the closeness of these works with James' pragmatism in giving consideration to Jung's idea of "personal equation, " which later characterizes his views on treatment, such as countertransference.
