      abstract = {This book examines the Jungian imperative that the Third  must become the Fourth through the lens of Carl Jungs  complex reception of Plato. While in psychoanalytic  discourse the Third is typically viewed as an agent that  brings about healing, the author highlights that, in the  case of Jung, an early emphasis on the Third as the  transcendent function gave way to an increasing insistence  on the importance of the Fourth. And yet, he asks, why must  the Third become the Fourth? Paul Bishop begins with a  survey of work on Jungs relation to Plato, before turning  to Jungs readings of the Timaeus and Black Books, as well  as Goethes Faust II and Nietzsches Zarathustra. He proceeds  to unpick Jungs statements on the Third and the Fourth  though a compelling analysis of how Jung draws upon  religious and alchemical traditions, Pythagorean  numerology, his own dream-like experiences and Platos  cosmology. This book will appeal to practitioners and to  scholars working in the history of ideas, psychoanalysis,  philosophy, and psychoanalytic theory.
