Jacob and Esau : On the Collective Symbolism of the Brother Motif
Erich NeumannTranslation from German of previously unpublished typescripts and manuscripts
In this newly discovered manuscript, Neumann sowed the seeds of his later works. It provides a window into his original thinking and creative writing regarding the biblical subject of Jacob and Esau and the application of the brother motif to analytical psychology.
Neumann elaborates on the central role of the principle of opposites in the human soul,
contrasting Jacob's introversion with Esau's extraversion, the sacred and the profane, the inner and the outer aspects of the God-image, the shadow and its projection, and how the old ethic- expressed, for example, in the expulsion of the scapegoat-perpetuates evil.
