Key speakers include Giancarlo Magno on “Jung, Alchemy, and the Apulian Land,” Lara Newton on the relationship between matter and spirit, and John Todd on the role of Eros in alchemy. Participants will also study Maria Prophetissa and the Bavarian fairy tale “The Maiden and the Devil.” Three excursions to historical sites, including Matera, enhance the seminar’s exploration of the psyche and consciousness.
