This lively, intimate, sometimes disrespectful, but always knowledgeable history of the Bollingen Foundation confirms its pervasive influence on American intellectual life. Conceived by Paul and Mary Mellon as a means of publishing in English the collected works of C. G. Jung, the Foundation broadened to encompass scholarship and publication in a remarkable number of fields. Here are wonderful portraits of the central figures, including the Mellons, Jung himself, Heinrich Zimmer, Joseph show more Campbell, D. T. Suzuki, Natacha Rambova, Vladimir Nabokov, Gershom Scholem, Herbert Read, and Kurt and Helen Wolff. Copyright © Libri GmbH. All rights reserved. Source: Publisher show less

I always enjoy stories that are illustrated the most, and Greg Hildebrant is among my favorite illustrators. Being a fan of the fantasy genre, and already familiar with most of the stories behind the pictures in this book, I have loved looking at them over and over. Besides the story illustrations, I very much enjoyed the pictures of his children that Hildebrandt shared with us.

Loved the Middle-Earth calendars in the 70's!! Think I still have some.
