After Jung finished writing\u00a0Liber Novus<\/em>\u00a0in June 1915, which included the majority of the active imaginations he had between November 1913 and April 1914, together with his commentaries on them, he decided to make a calligraphic version of it. Modelled on medieval manuscripts, Jung used Gothic script, historiated initials, and paintings to illustrate significant episodes in the text. By the early autumn of 1915 he had transcribed\u00a0Liber Primus\u00a0<\/em>onto seven parchment sheets. For symbolic or practical reasons, Jung then decided to put\u00a0Liber Secundus<\/em>\u00a0into a large book bound in red leather \u2013\u00a0The<\/em>\u00a0Red\u00a0<\/em>Book \u2013 which he had begun by the late autumn of 1915. He continued to transcribe\u00a0Liber Secondus<\/em>\u00a0until 1928 but never finished it.\u00a0<\/em>The historiated initials and paintings in\u00a0The<\/em>\u00a0Red Book<\/em>\u00a0follow the text through the chapters on Izdubar episode and the Opening of The Egg, which took Jung until February 1917 to finish. Taken together, the parchment paintings for\u00a0Liber Primus\u00a0<\/em>and the first part of\u00a0Liber Secundus\u00a0<\/em>in\u00a0The Red Book<\/em>\u00a0provide us with his initial attempts to illuminate the visionary, the first series of visual images in his ongoing process of individuation.<\/p>\n

After Jung completed \u2019The Opening of the Egg\u2019 during February 1917, the subsequent paintings in the\u00a0Red Book<\/em>\u00a0reflect his active imagination experiences recorded in the Black Books and also relate to his ongoing conceptualization of analytical psychology between 1917 and 1928. This second module of this series will focus on the images produced during this time.<\/p>\n
