ABSTRACT

My aim in this section is to give an overview of what is considered in Jungian theory to be the feeling-toned complex and to emphasise those areas which I feel are important in the study of consciousness. It is necessary to separate the complex as a psychological structure from the experience of the constellation of an autonomous complex. I look at the two principal components of the complex from Jung’s original definition and begin investigating their neural correlates. These will then be dealt with in greater detail in later chapters.
