Conversing with James HIllman: Senex & Puer
Conversing with James HIllman: Senex & Puer
The James Hillman Symposium of 2015, by focusing on multiple aspects of the puer-senex complex, made all of us more aware of the source of much of the division in our twenty-first century world… . For better comprehension of the dynamics in our individual relationships, and for better possibility of plumbing the pressing issues of our time, we can benefit by learning how to understand each one-sided extreme… . [I]n my opinion, this may be James Hillman’s finest work. It is vital for coping with the strain of fractured polarities that puzzle us. As you learn more about the operation of this complex, you may be surprised at how it manifests in your life. Here at the Symposium and in this volume we bring forward twenty-first century creative thoughts and suggested possibilities for understanding why old and new are charged with such dissension. –Joanne H. Stroud
We are ‘entertaining Ideas’–always one of Hillman’s favorite pastimes. It is such a puer thing. We are neither establishing laws, nor determining ordinances… . We are playfully, joyously entertaining ideas… . And so it is fitting that we, each one, enter into his work, James Hillman’s, and imagine it forward into the world. –Gail Thomas
