Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes for the first time Jung’s views of Nazi Germany during the whole period from the Nazi takeover in 1933 to the end of World War II. It brings together the authors’ research in archives and primary sources during the past 10 years. It is untenable to hold that Jung was a "Nazi sympathizer" after Nazi Germany's first year. In spring 1934 he entered into a transition during which he became warier of the Nazis and of statements that might be construed as anti-Semitic. From 1934 to 1939 he became increasingly warier of the Nazis. His views were strongly anti-Nazi in relation to events during World War II. William Schoenl is professor emeritus of history at Michigan State University, where he taught for 45 years. His recent publications include Jung’s Evolving Views of Nazi Germany: From 1936 to the End of World War II, Journal of Analytical Psychology, 59(2), (April 2014) and An Answer to the Question: Was Jung, for a Time, a “Nazi Sympathizer” or Not?, Jung Journal, 6(4), (Fall 2012). His books include C. G. Jung: His Friendships with Mary Mellon and J. B. Priestley (Chiron, 1998). Linda Schoenl, RN, is co-author with William of Jung’s Views of Nazi Germany: The First Year and Jung’s Transition, Journal of Analytical Psychology, (in press). She was a registered nurse in the Regional Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Sparrow Health System, Lansing, Michigan for 37 years.
