Driscoll uses archetypal psychology to explore Milton's great themes of God, man, woman, and evil and offers readers deepened understanding of Jung's profound thoughts on Godhead. The Father, the Son, Satan, Messiah, Samson, Adam, and Eve gain new dimensions of meaning as their stories become epiphanies of the archetypes of Godhead. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGod and Satan of \u003ci\u003eParadise Lost\u003c\/i\u003e are seen as the ego and the shadow of a single unfolding personality whose \u003ci\u003eanima\u003c\/i\u003e is the Holy Spirit and Milton's muse. Samson carries the Yahweh archetype examined by Jung in \u003ci\u003eAnswer to Job\u003c\/i\u003e, and Messiah and Satan in \u003ci\u003eParadise Regained\u003c\/i\u003e embody the hostile brothers archetype. \u003ci\u003eAnima, animus\u003c\/i\u003e and the individuation drive underlie the psychodynamics of Adam and Eve's fall. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDriscoll draws on his critical acumen and scholarly knowledge of Renaissance literature to shed new light on Jung's psychology of religion. \u003ci\u003eThe Unfolding God of Jung and Milton\u003c\/i\u003e illumines Jung's heterodox notion of Godhead as a quarternity rather than a trinity, his revolutionary concept of a divine individuation process, his radical solution to the problem of evil, and his wrestling with the feminine in Godhead. The book's glossary of Jungian terms, written for literary critics and theologians rather than clinicians, is exceptionally detailed and insightful. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeyond enriching our understanding of Jung and Milton, Driscoll's discussion contributes to theodicy, to process theology, and to the study of myths and archetypes in literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eJames P.
