Concordance

This concordance provides a way to search Jung’s Collected Works by word and/or topic and to find all of the relevant references. These references include a detailed subject heading, quotes, and context for every search.

This program was developed by Thornton Ladd who was a well-known Southern California architect. Thornton was an active member of the Library and Bookstore Committee at the C.G. Jung Institute in Los Angeles. He served on the ARAS Board from their very first meeting in 1982 until 1993. During his time on the board he assisted ARAS in developing the new national archive. He helped with everything from the budget to planning how many records to create per year. He introduced computers into the ARAS world by setting up our first digital database system and even gave serious consideration to becoming the Director of National ARAS but did not want to relocate to New York.

Thornton Ladd spent many years passionately developing this Concordance. We are thrilled to house the program here on ARAS Online. It allows one to search Carl Jung's Collected Works by keyword. Enter a term in the box above to see where it appears in the Collected Works.

The abbreviations in the Concordance that do not refer to Jung's Collected Works are from Edinger’s books:

AL: Aion Lectures
AOP: Anatomy of the Psyche
TOL: Transformation of Libido
ED: Eternal Drama
ML: Mysterium Lectures
TGI: Transformation of the God-Image

JL is in reference to Jung's Letters - volumes one and two.
