Herbert Silberer Books

    February 28, 1882 – January 12, 1923

    Herbert Silberer, a Viennese psychoanalyst, delved into the study of the hypnagogic state, proposing that the images perceived within it are autosymbolic representations of the perceiver's state. His work explored the intricate connections between modern psychology, mysticism, and esoteric traditions, notably alchemy and Western Christian esotericism. Silberer's insights into the parallels between alchemical symbolism and psychological processes resonated with Carl Jung's later theories. He contended that autosymbolic phenomena emerge from a dynamic interplay between drowsiness and conscious thought.
