Philosophy Feuds: Freud and Jung

A gorgeously animated four-minute video on how Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung's frenetic friendship tore itself apart. The world of philosophy has seen its share of feuds β€” the same creative team made another on Sartre and Camus, once friends and collaborators, and their sharp falling-out over political belief. These rivalries highlight the weirdness and rarity of true friendship, as Montaigne discusses candidly in his famous essay On Friendship.

Which letters
What's the difference?

The Grokkist letter is Danu's monthly letter about the whole Grokkist community: what people are making and thinking about, gatherings coming up, and a handful of Snackables, small good things worth your time.

The Press sends you new writing from this site as it's published (essays, talks, stories, books in instalments), plus a monthly letter from the editor. You can narrow it to the Realms you care about.

Choose either or both. Each email has a one-click way out.

What are the Realms?

Every piece in the Press lives in one or two Realms: regions of the Grokkist world, each asking for a different kind of attention. Pick the ones that draw you, and you'll only hear about pieces from those.

  • Unfolding Realm: identity and becoming
  • Entangled Vale: shared inquiry and making sense together
  • Maker's Forge: creative expression
  • Soma Isles: the body and embodied practice
  • Wild Margin: changemaking and possibility
  • Hearthlands: community and connection
