Marie-Louise by Franz

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marie-Louise by Franz

Marie-Louise von Franz (born January 4, 1915 in Munich ; † February 17, 1998 in Küsnacht near Zurich ) was a Swiss classical philologist, employee of CG Jung , practicing psychotherapist and lecturer and training analyst at the CG Jung Institute in Zurich. She is known for her depth psychological interpretations of fairy tales and alchemical texts.

Life

Marie-Louise Ida Margareta von Franz was the daughter of Margret Susanne, née Schoen (1883–1962) and Baron Erwin Gottfried von Franz (1876–1944), an Austrian colonel on the general staff of the Austro-Hungarian army. From 1919 she lived in Switzerland, in the rural Rheineck in the canton of St. Gallen .

In order to be able to attend the “ Freie Gymnasium ” in Zurich , which specializes in languages ​​and literature , Marie-Louise von Franz lived from 1928 together with her older sister, who attended the same school, in a guesthouse on Bärengasse in downtown Zurich. Three years later, in 1931, the whole family moved to Zurich, at 107 Dolderstrasse.

In 1938 or 1939 Marie-Louise von Franz was naturalized in Switzerland.

Cooperation with CG Jung

In 1933 M.-L. know the psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung from Franz . The first, deeply impressive for her and, as she said to her sister on the same day, “decisive encounter” with CG Jung, happened towards the end of her school days, when she was a high school student at the age of 18. A classmate and nephew of Toni Wolff , a colleague of CG Jung, had invited her and 7 boy friends to visit Professor CG Jung in his tower in Bollingen on the upper shores of Lake Zurich. They had a lively discussion with Jung about psychology. By a comment from Jung about a patient who “lives on the moon” she understood, according to Maguire, that there are two levels of reality: That the psychological happening, the inner world with its dreams and myths, is just as real as that outer world. As a result, she attended Jung's psychological lectures at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich) from 1933 . In 1934 she began an analysis with CG Jung and from 1935 took part in his psychological seminar. In return for the analysis, she looked at two major alchemical manuscripts, the Aurora Consurgens attributed to Saint Thomas Aquinas and the Musaeum Hermeticum . Since numerous passages in it came from treatises of Islamic-Persian origin, she also added Arabic to her subjects .

Thus began a long collaboration with Carl Gustav Jung , which lasted until his death in 1961. The collaboration regarding his studies of alchemy was particularly intense . She translated - and later also commented - Latin and Greek texts for him. She added Jung's late work Mysterium Coniunctionis , published in 1957, with her own interpretation of the Aurora consurgens , a Christian- alchemical text, and made it clear that this text must actually have been dictated by Thomas Aquinas. The experience of what CG Jung called the objective psyche or the collective unconscious shaped her life and work as well as her confrontation with the reality of this layer of the psyche, which stands autonomously across from consciousness.

Education

Also in 1933, M.-L. von Franz completed her studies in classical philology and languages ​​( Latin , Greek ) as major subjects and literature and ancient history as minor subjects at the University of Zurich , which she completed in 1940 “summa cum laude” with her doctorate on the aesthetic views of the Ilias cholia . Your doctoral supervisor Prof. Dr. Ernst Howald wrote about it: "summa diligentia et magna sagacitate conscripta" (translated: "written with the greatest care / accuracy and great sensitivity").

Barren times - fairy tale interpretation and tutoring

Since Marie-Louise von Franzen's father had lost most of his money in the early 1930s , the daughters had to earn the money for the enrollment and tuition fees themselves during their university studies, and later for their entire livelihood.

Shortly before the outbreak of the Second World War , Hedwig von Beit turned to Marie-Louise von Franz with the request to help her write a book about fairy tales. Von Franz devoted a lot of time to this research and interpretation work, which for her - like her alchemical studies - became increasingly important for psychological questions. So von Franz began her more than 9 years of work on the symbolism of fairy tales . The three-volume work of the same name only appeared under the name of Hedwig von Beit. In this as well as in later lectures, where von Franz connected the fairy tale interpretations with the ground of reality and experience, she made clear the psychological wisdom inherent in fairy tales, as whose legitimate discoverer she, according to Alfred Ribi, could be understood.

For many years Marie-Louise von Franz lived very modestly and earned her living as a tutor for Latin and Greek for high school students and students.

In 1936 she received a grant of 500 SFr from the ETH Zurich for symbolic historical research. CG Jung supported the corresponding application.

Living: alone, with Barbara Hannah, in the Bollinger Tower

In 1944 her father died and her mother had to sell the family house. Marie-Louise von Franz first lived in a room on Jupiterstraße and later, also in the Zurich district of Hottingen, on Englischviertelstraße.

In 1946, through the mediation of CG Jung, she and Barbara Hannah, 25 years her senior, moved into a three-room apartment at Hornweg 2 in Küsnacht near Zurich.

Marie-Louise von Franz had a passionate interest in nature and gardening, as her sister reports. To meet her need for nature, she bought a piece of land on the edge of a large forest in Bollingen and built a square tower there on a hilltop in 1958. In doing so, she followed the example and suggestion of Carl Gustav Jung. Since the tower was intended as a hermitage, it was intentionally not provided with electricity. She fetched wood for heating and cooking from the surrounding forest. Next to the house was a bog pond with toads and frogs , which she loved very much. This tower made it possible for her to escape the restlessness of modern civilization from time to time and to find refuge in nature, as her sister describes. She also wrote most of her books there, which she planned early in her life and realized one after the other over the decades.

From 1965 on she lived with Barbara Hannah in a house at Lindenbergstrasse 15 in Küsnacht, where both had more space than before in Hornweg.

Work as an analyst

In 1942 M.-L. from Franz a dream from which she concluded in conversation with Jung that she should become an analyst. In the same year she started working with first analysands (someone undergoing psychoanalytic treatment).

1941–1944 she was an associate member of the “Psychological Club” of Zurich. She gave her first lecture there on June 7, 1941 on "Some Remarks on the Visions of Saint Perpetua", a topic on which she published the book "The Passion of Perpetua" in 1949. In the following years she gave many more lectures at the Psychological Club. Often they formed the basis of part of their books.

From 1942 to 1952 she was the librarian of the Psychological Club. In 1944 she was a full member of the Zurich Psychological Club.

In her psychotherapeutic practice in Küsnacht, she interpreted over 60,000 dreams of clients and practiced until her death.

At the end of 1956 she became a training analyst and lecturer at the CG Jung Institute in Küsnacht near Zurich. From 1994 she was Honorary President of the Research and Training Center for Depth Psychology according to CG Jung and Marie-Louise von Franz .

In 1974 she founded the Foundation for Jungian Psychology together with some of her students (René Malamud, Willi Obrist, Alfred Ribi, Paul Walder) . Its aim is to support research and to disseminate knowledge in the field of Jungian depth psychology. The foundation's own publishing house publishes the journal Jungiana , books on analytical psychology and a continuous critical edition of Franz's works.

Lecture and travel activities

In 1937, von Franz first took part in the "Eranos Conference" in Ascona (Switzerland). In 1950 she traveled to Paris, in 1951 to America . In America she lectured for three months and traveled around the country. Further trips took her to Egypt in 1955 and to Greece in 1956 .

From the 1960s, lecture tours formed part of her professional activities: she traveled to America in 1968, 1975, 1979 and 1984 and to Montreal in 1975 . In Germany she was in Bremen in 1971 , in Elmau (near Garmisch-Partenkirchen) in 1972, in Herrenalb / Baden-Baden in 1974 , in Lindau on Lake Constance in 1977 and in Garmisch-Partenkirchen in 1986 . In 1974 she traveled to London , 1977 to Graz (Austria) and Rome and 1981 to Paris . A trip to Scotland in 1963 , to Asia in 1970 (including Bangkok , Tokyo , Kyoto , Hong Kong , Bali , Singapore ), to Rome in 1973 and to Florence in 1984 was more private .

Friendships

  • With the physicist and Nobel Prize winner Wolfgang Pauli : From 1947 to 1955, Marie-Louise von Franz was in contact with Wolfgang Pauli. At first she helped him with translations of the texts of Johannes Kepler (1571-1630) and Robert Fludd (1574-1637). Years of intensive scientific exchange followed on questions of the relationship between physics and depth psychology, of number and archetype, but also of Pauli's dreams and active imaginations, which he shared about Franz, who was at times his analyst. The relationship between the two lasted until 1955; it was probably not simple and probably of a platonic nature. Pauli called it his source of inspiration ( femme inspiratrice ). From their correspondence only the letters from Pauli to Franz have survived. Pauli's widow France destroyed Marie-Louise von Franz's letters after Pauli's death.
  • With analyst Barbara Hannah: Jung encouraged Marie-Louise von Franz to live together with her colleague and analyst Barbara Hannah. As for the reason for their cohabitation, CG Jung said that both were primarily interested in analysis and that analysts should not live alone. The two women had a lifelong friendship.

Last years

After 1986 she led a more introverted life in her house in Küsnacht and withdrew more often during the year to her tower in Bollingen, where she sometimes stayed up to a total of 5 months a year. She continued to meet friends and analysands from all over the world and devoted herself to her creative work, especially Arabic alchemy.

Marie-Louise von Franz suffered from Parkinson's disease during the last years of her life. She consciously took only a minimum of medication, according to Barbara Davies, and until her death was increasingly physically impaired, but with a clear mind and consciousness. At the age of 83, on February 17, 1998, she died of complications from her illness.

Services

Four main areas can be identified in her work:

  • Subject alchemy : She edited, translated and commented on the alchemical treatise Aurora Consurgens , attributed to Thomas Aquinas , which was published as the third volume of CG Jung's Mysterium Coniunctionis in 1957. Towards the end of her life, she commented on the Hal ar-Rumuz (Book of Explanation of Symbols) by the Arab alchemist Muḥammad Ibn Umail .
  • Fairy tale interpretations. The interpretations in her symbolism of fairy tales commissioned by Hedwig von Beit come from Marie-Louise von Franz and were created between 1938 and 1948. From this fund and her further work on fairy tales, a whole series of publications on fairy tales emerged, making them a larger one Became known to the public. Marie-Louise von Franzen's fairy tale publications are mainly revised lectures. Topics are e.g. B. the problem of evil, the change in attitudes towards the archetype of the feminine and the archetypal experience of individuation.
  • From 1960 onwards, Marie-Louise von Franz dealt with the archetypal conception of natural numbers based on CG Jung's concept of synchronicity . In doing so she tried to approach the unus mundus , the unus mundus , which lies behind the phenomena of psyche and matter , about which she writes in her work number and time . Her book Reflections of the Soul also addresses the question of the relationship between psyche and matter . Projection and inner collection in the psychology of CG Jung . Essays on this topic from the period between 1960 and 1986 are collected in the book Psyche und Materie . It also contains essays on the principle of synchronicity. Marie-Louise von Franz was the first to draw attention to the parallel between the mathematical structure of DNA and the I Ching in 1968.
  • Her psychotherapeutic practice served as an experience basis for lectures on problems in practical psychology. Many of these lectures have been published in revised form in various locations.

Compensating for the one-sidedness of Christianity by the collective unconscious was a fundamental theme in her work. She discussed this question

  • In her analysis of the dreams of the martyr Perpetua. In it she shows "how the development of the Christian faith, the transition from antiquity to Christianity, was shown in the souls of those affected at that time."
  • Based on the vessel symbolism of the Grail in the Grail legends (and its Grail figure Merlin).
  • In her work on alchemy, especially the Aurora Consurgens and the Hal ar-Rumuz (Book of Explanation of Symbols) by the Arab alchemist Muḥammad Ibn Umail .
  • In the visions of St. Nicholas von Flüe. According to Franz, these point to the dark, evil and cosmic nature as parts of a holistic image of God. They revealed "certain basic tendencies of the collective unconscious, which strive to develop the Christian religious symbol further" and show "points of orientation that indicate ... where the unconscious psyche wants to take us: namely to a deeper realization of the problem of opposites and thereby to greater closeness and fear of God. "

Fairy tale understanding

Her interpretations of fairy tales are based on Jung's view that "the fairy tale as a spontaneous, naive product of the soul [...] can probably not pronounce anything other than what the soul is." Marie-Louise von Franz understood fairy tales as average images of different people Phases of experience of spiritual reality. They are “the purest and simplest expression of collectively unconscious psychological processes. The meaning of a text is contained in the totality of the motives and the specific course of the action. Although every fairy tale represents a relatively closed system with an essential psychological meaning, all fairy tales evidently describe the same unknown and inexhaustible psychological fact. Jung calls this the self, which is the spiritual wholeness of an individual as, paradoxically, the regulating center of the collective unconscious ”. Each archetype represented in fairy tales represents, on the one hand, only one aspect of the collective unconscious. On the other hand, it always represents the entire collective unconscious.

Hero and heroine - the identifying figures for the audience - are to be understood as archetypal figures (not as ordinary human ego) and thus represent the archetypal basis of the ego complex. They are “like a model for the individual consciousness that often deviates from the instinctual basis”. On the one hand, they can be understood as a function of the self, but at the same time they are also symbols of a 'correct' ego attitude required by the psychological wholeness. G. Isler explains von Franzens understanding of this: "Both the character of the hero as well as the whole course of the fairy tale plot compensate for the initially insufficient or wrong attitude of the consciousness: The initial emergency or deficiency situation is remedied at the end of the fairy tale, this usually shows a ' more holistic 'structure than the beginning, which corresponds to a renewal of the now ruling consciousness (expressed e.g. by the young king), which is now' more correctly 'oriented towards the psychological wholeness. ”Fairy tales compensate for individual consciousness on the one hand, but also an "insufficient attitude of the collective consciousness, which in the European culture is predominantly shaped by Christianity". The fate of the heroes is consequently not understood as an individual neurosis, as is often the case in personalistic-subjectivistic attempts at interpretation, but as difficulties and dangers imposed by nature on man.
