Robin Robertson

La obra y el pensamiento de C. G. Jung (1875-1961) han transformado el mundo de la psicología moderna. Jung fue un pensador original, pero muchas de sus ideas todavía son en gran parte desconocidas o mal comprendi-das. Su contribucion se extiende mas alla de la teoria y la practica de la psicologia, alcanzando su influencia campos como la mitologia o la historia de las religiones. En esta introduccion definitiva al trabajo de C. G. Jung, el Dr. Robertson nos explica como el genial psicologo suizo reintrodujo a Occidente en el mundo de los arquetipos del inconsciente colectivo, de la mitologia y de los simbolos de la naturaleza. Robertson explora la estructura y la dinamica de la psique, el significado de los sueños, de la sombra, del anima, del animus, de la misteriosa figura del self y el proceso de individuacion.

Charged with strangeness and beauty, Hill of Doors is a haunted and haunting book, where each successive poem seems a shape conjured from the shadows, and where the uncanny is made physically present. The collection sees the return of some familiar members of the Robertson company, including Strindberg -- heading, as usual, towards calamity -- and the shape-shifter Dionysus. Four loose retellings of stories of the Greek god form pillars for the book, alongside four short Ovid versions. Threaded through these are a series of pieces about the poet's childhood on the north-east coast, his fascination with the sea and the islands of Scotland. However, the reader will also discover a distinct new note in Robertson's austere but ravishing poetry: towards the possibility of contentment -- a house, a door, a key -- finding, at last, a 'happiness of the hand and heart'. Magisterial in its command and range, indelibly moving and memorable in its speech, Hill of Doors is Robin Robertson's most powerful book to date.

La persona que creemos ser es únicamente una pequeña parte de nuestro total. Cuando nos alejamos de quienes creemos ser, otra figura se forma en nuestro inconsciente: la sombra. La sombra es una personificacion de todos los rasgos que hemos negado de nosotros mismos porque nunca los desarrollamos, o porque los vimos y no nos gusto lo que vimos. Aceptar y hacer honor a nuestra propia sombra es una importante mision, porque gracias a ello se desarrolla la conciencia y se alcanza la plenitud.Este libro le revelara como puede comprometerse con su sombra y asi unirse a ella para convertirse en la persona completa que esta llamado a ser. Un viaje fascinante que le cambiara la vida. Comprometase con su sombra y descubra todo su ser.

Hace 2.500 años, Pitágoras fundó una escuela mística basada en la verdad oculta de que los mismos números que utilizamos para contar son los ladrillos básicos con los que se construye el edificio de la realidad. Un siglo y medio mas tarde, Platon sostuvo que el mundo en el que vivimos no es sino una copia degradada de un mundo mas autentico y profundo: el mundo de las ideas. Ninguno de los dos se dio cuenta de que sus numeros e ideas podrian ser tambien los componentes basicos de la psique humana, es decir, los arquetipos. El presente libro sigue la pista a la evolucion moderna de esta idea, desde el Renacimiento hasta el siglo XX, para culminar en la hipotesis arquetipica del psicologo C.G. Jung y su reflejo en las ideas matematicas de Kurt Godel. Pero eso, en realidad, no es lo mas importante, pues el caracter radicalmente revolucionario y renovador de la obra se manifiesta en el hecho de que, al terminar de leerla, cualquier lector puede saber ya definitivamente todo lo que desee sobre los arquetipos y por que son tan importantes en nuestras vidas.

Robin Robertsons fourth collection is, if anything, an even more intense, moving, bleakly lyrical, and at times shocking book than Swithering, winner of the Forward Prize. These poems are written with the authority of classical myth, yet sound utterly contemporary: the poets gaze whether on the natural world or the details of his own life is unflinching and clear, its utter seriousness leavened by a wry, dry and disarming humour. Alongside fine translations from Neruda and Montale and dynamic (and at times horrific) retellings of stories from Ovid, the poems in The Wrecking Light pitch the power and wonder of nature against the frailty and failure of the human. Ghosts sift through these poems certainties become volatile, the simplest situations thicken with strangeness and threat all of them haunted by the pressure and presence of the primitive world against our own, and the kind of dream-like intensity of description that has become Robertsons trademark. This is a book of considerable grandeur and sweep which confirms Robertson as one of the most arresting and powerful poets at work today. Robin Robertson continues to explore the bleak, beautiful territory that he has made his own. His stripped-bare lyricism, haunted by echoes of folksong, is as unforgiving as the weather and poems such as At Roane Head show him writing at the height of his considerable powers The Times

WINNER OF THE 2006 FORWARD PRIZE In Scots, the verb swither has two meanings: to be doubtful, to waver, to be in two minds; and to appear in shifting forms - indeterminate and volatile. From disarmingly direct poems about the end of childhood to erotically charged lyrics about the ends of desire, Robertsons powerful third collection is stalked and haunted by both senses. Hard-edged, pitch-perfect, effortlessly various, Swithering is a book of brave and black romance, locating its voice in that space where great change is an ever-present possibility.Swithering has just won the Forward Prize for Best Collection and is also shortlisted for this years T.S. Eliot Prize.

Shortlisted for the Man Booker PrizeWinner of the Goldsmiths Prize Winner of The Roehampton Poetry Prize Winner of the Walter Scott Prize for Historical FictionBold, brilliant . . . this is as poignant and visual as classic film noir - Ian RankinAn incredible achievement - Irvine WelshThis book will shift something in your soul - Elif ShafakWalker is a D-Day veteran with post-traumatic stress disorder; he cant return home to rural Nova Scotia, and looks instead to the city for freedom, anonymity and repair. As he moves from New York to Los Angeles and San Francisco we witness a crucial period of fracture in American history, one that also allowed film noir to flourish. The Dream had gone sour but as those dark, classic movies made clear the country needed outsiders to study and dramatize its new anxieties.While Walker tries to piece his life together, America is beginning to come apart: deeply paranoid, doubting its own certainties, riven by social and racial division, spiralling corruption and the collapse of the inner cities.Robin Robertsons The Long Take is the story of a good man, brutalized by war, haunted by violence and apparently doomed to return to it yet resolved to find kindness again, in the world and in himself.Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literature.

Longlisted for the Highland Book Prize 2020From the author of The Long Take, shortlisted for the Booker Prize and winner of both the Walter Scott Prize and the Goldsmiths Prize.Ive long admired Robin Robertsons narrative gift . . . If you love stories, you will love this book. Val McDermidLike some lost chapters from the Celtic folk tradition, Grimoire tells stories of ordinary people caught up, suddenly, in the extraordinary: tales of violence, madness and retribution, of second sight, witches, ghosts, selkies, changelings and doubles, all bound within a larger mythology, narrated by a doomed shape-changer a man, beast or god.A grimoire is a manual for invoking spirits. Here, Robin Robertson and his brother Tim Robertson whose accompanying images are as unforgettable as cave-paintings raise strange new forms which speak not only of the potency of our myths and superstitions, but how they were used to balance and explain the world and its predicaments.From one of our most powerful lyric poets, this is a book of curses and visions, gifts both desired and unwelcome, characters on the cusp of their transformation whether women seeking revenge or saving their broken children, or men trying to save themselves. Haunting and elemental, Grimoire is full of the same charged beauty as the Scottish landscape a beauty that can switch, with a mere change in the weather, to hostility and terror.

itágoras, hace más de dos milenios, enseñaba a sus discípulos que los números que utilizamos para contar son los cimientos sobre los que se erige la realidad. Un siglo y medio después, Platón argumento que el mundo en el que vivimos no es otra cosa que una mala copia del mundo de las ideas. Ninguno de estos dos destacados personajes cayo en la cuenta de que sus numeros e ideas podrian constituir tambien los componentes mas esenciales de la psique humana: los arquetipos. En esta obra se examina la evolucion que ha seguido a esta idea, desde el Renacimiento hasta el siglo XX, y que culmina en la hipotesis de los arquetipos del psicologo suizo Carl Gustav Jung y su relacion con las ideas matematicas de Kurt Godel. Lo mas relevante de ella es su caracter revolucionario e innovador, su aportacion en el conocimiento de los arquetipos y su importancia en nuestras vidas.
