The book delves into the concept of the midlife crisis through the lenses of C.G. Jung and Goethe, examining its significance in contemporary life. It traces the evolution from "the ages of humankind" to "the stages of life," emphasizing the midlife crisis as a crucial transition. Paul Bishop analyzes Jung's insights and Goethe's exploration of Orphic wisdom, particularly in his poem "Primal Words. Orphic." By integrating Jungian psychology with Goethe's commentary, the author reveals profound implications for understanding this pivotal life stage.
