Jungian analyst Murray Stein welcoming me to his office in Zürich. Photo by Laura London. (I took this photo of Dr. Stein after a very long journey to his office in 2015. Please stop using it without my permission.)
Murray Stein is the author of the wildly popular book, Jung’s Map of the Soul: An Introduction.
Dr. Stein earned a Master of Divinity from Yale University in 1969, a Diploma in Analytical Psychology {the degree of a Jungian analyst} from the C.G. Jung Institute Zürich in 1973, and a Ph.D. in religion and psychological studies from the University of Chicago in 1984.
He has been a member of the International Association for Analytical Psychology {IAAP} since 1973, and served as its president from 2001 to 2004.
Dr. Stein was an honorary member of the C.G. Jung Institute of Chicago from 1976 to 2003, the founding member and first president of the Chicago Society of Jungian Analysts, and one of the founding members of the Inter-Regional Society of Jungian Analysts {IRSJA} in North America.
Since 2003, he has been both a training and supervising analyst at the International School of Analytical Psychology {ISAP} in Zürich, where he served as president from 2008 to 2012, as well as a member of the Schweizerische Gesellschaft fuer Analytische Psychologie {SGAP} in Bern, Switzerland.
In addition, Dr. Stein was editor and publisher at Chiron Publications from 1983 to 2014.
The interview was recorded on November 25, 2015, during my visit to Dr. Stein’s office in the historic building at Münstergasse 9 in Zürich. It is known as the Salomon-Gessner-Haus zum Schwanen {note the name on the door in the photo}. Dr. Stein told me that Goethe had visited Salomon Gessner in the house, and Mozart played his violin there at the age of ten when he and his father were passing through Zürich on a European tour to show off the prodigy boy’s genius.
The episode is 48 minutes long and around 46 MB. You can listen to it right here in your browser or download it to your computer. This episode is also available on iTunes and on Stitcher. You can read a summary of the topics Dr. Stein covered in the interview in this blog post.
