A great thinker in the service of others
Carl Gustav Jung was born on 26. July 1875 and studied medicine in Basel. From 1900 to 1909 he worked as a psychiatrist at the Burghölzli mental hospital in Zurich where he introduced Freud's psychoanalysis together with Eugen Bleuler. In 1912, after six years of friendship, Jung parted with Freud due to theoretical differences and went on to craft his own Analytical Psychology. In 1935 he became a Professor at the ETH in Zurich and in 1944 Professor of Medical Psychology at the University of Basel. Jung married Emma Rauschenbach in 1903; they had 5 children. He lived and practiced in Küsnacht on the lake of Zurich, where he died on June 6, 1961.
