History edit

The Foundation was established in 2003 to support the work of Sonu Shamdasani,[1] a London-based historian, in his then ongoing work of preparing Jung's Red Book for publication. Shamdasani is the co-founder of the Philemon Foundation with American Jungian analyst Stephen A. Martin.[3]

The works to date constitute the Philemon series. Several translators and editors have contributed within the series, developing a few topical sub-series on dreams, psychology, correspondence, lectures.
