The Passion of Perpetua A Psychological Interpretation of Her Visions

This book started life as an academic study for a seminar with C. G. Jung. It was first published in English translation in 1949, then published in German in 1951 as a supplement to Jung's volume Aion. St. Perpetua was an African Christian martyred in 203 A.D. She lived her truth to her last moment. Those not familiar with Perpetua's story will nevertheless appreciate this book because of the psychological understanding that von Franz brought to everything she focused on.
