Catafalque presents a groundbreaking interpretation of Carl Jung as a mystic, gnostic, and prophet for contemporary times. This work reimagines Jung and his contributions since the release of the Red Book in 2009, authored by a classical scholar who comprehends the ancient Gnostic, Hermetic, and alchemical roots of Jung's thought. It also recounts Jung's significant relationship with Sufi scholar Henry Corbin and the Persian Sufi tradition. Central to the narrative is the enigmatic Red Book, which Jung referred to as the "New Book." Peter Kingsley meticulously reveals its profound secret, often overlooked by those unable to grasp its incantatory nature. Beyond Jung's identity and contributions, this book explores the vast esoteric traditions that trace back to the dawn of civilization, shedding light on the hidden truths of Western philosophy, literature, and prophecy, both ancient and modern. Kingsley not only elucidates Jung’s significance but also reflects on the essence of Western identity. More than just a spiritual biography, Catafalque provides insights into the decline of Western culture and serves as a guide for navigating the current crises we face. This incantatory text offers a pathway to understanding the transformative actions needed in these challenging times. The book spans 848 pages in two volumes.
