Inter Views: Conversations With Laura Pozzo on Psychotherapy, Biography, Love, Soul, Dreams, Work, Imagination, and the State of the Culture [Paperback]

James Hillman (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: May 1984

Inter Views is Hillman’s most biographical and self-revealing book with extraordinary, yet practical accounts of active imagination, writing, daily work, and symptoms in their relation to love. The book is also a radical deconstruction of the interview form itself, even though one reads along as if in a coffee conversation with Hillman explaining his life and thought.

Pozzo interviews archetypal psychologist James Hillman and asks some insightful and penetrating interview questions. Well worth finding.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful introduction to Hillman the person, May 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Inter Views: Conversations With Laura Pozzo on Psychotherapy, Biography, Love, Soul, Dreams, Work, Imagination, and the State of the Culture (Paperback)

Hillman's work is transformational. But we know little about he man. And while Hillman would insist that his work says all he needs to have said about himself, the attraction of biography is persistant. Here you will learn of his early days in Ireland and Germany, of his work as a Navy corpsman in WWII, and how we views life in Dallas Texas in the 1980's. This is an indispensible part of any Hillman library.

This review is from: Inter Views: Conversations With Laura Pozzo on Psychotherapy, Biography, Love, Soul, Dreams, Work, Imagination, and the State of the Culture (Paperback)

This book is simply overwhelming. Laura Pozo interviewed to this brilliant thinker . Because Hillman goes far beyond his profession . He is in the real mood and describes with absolute clearity and mighty precison many of the inarticulated process of growing up and put the cards on the table .
This text should be a reference text for every human being .
Amazing and recommendable!
