ABSTRACT
The author focuses on the letters from Toni Wolff to James Kirsch because, for most of us, myself included, she is relatively unknown, except that she was intimately related to Jung for over forty years and she was his assistant for many of those years. There are three letters from James Kirsch to Toni Wolff in answer to some of her interpretations of his behaviour in particular circumstances. The correspondence begins around a scheduled visit of Jung to Berlin in January 1930. In one of the letter, two things stand out for the author. First, a relatively new analysand, and a very young one at that, is brought into the familiar circle around Jung. Jung travels openly with Toni, and Kirsch would have known something about the relationship between them. Second, the tone of Toni's letter demonstrates her well-known formality. From the correspondence, the author concludes that Kirsch really listened to Toni and respected her deeply.
