FRIDAY INTRO PRESENTATION DESCRIPTION:
(register for Friday separately)

Friday Lecture: When Psyche is Muse
When Psyche is Muse, the curious and the beauti-ful are not enough. She demands the psychologi-cal. Psyche wants us to gather the stuff of our livesour obsessions, our family dramas, the difficult details of our wanderings in the wilderness, our dreams and visions, our ghosts and spirit guides. The inner world is more real to her than all our worldly garments. Jung speaks her language in the Red Book. Jungian Memoir writing that includes and illuminates the inner life is one of her forms. So is self portrait.

Psyche came to the painter Emma Hoffman, Naomi Ruth Lowinsky's grandmother, in the darkest night of her soul, and urged her to reflect on her own face in the mirror. A series of selfportraits traces her long life's journey. Hoffman's portraits, still lifes, and landscapes explore shadow and light. It was she who initiated Lowinsky into the spiritual practice of making art of one's life.

This lecture will gather and weave four strands: Emma Hoffman's story and paintings, Lowinsky's memoirs in poetry and prose, her reflections on Jung's Red Book and on Jungian memoir as a literary genre.
