The Conversing with James Hillmanseries publishes the papers from the Dallas Institute’s annual James Hillman Symposium. Each symposium takes as its subject a volume of the Uniform Edition of the Writings of James Hillman. Internationally recognized scholars explicate the volume and illuminate concepts developed by James Hillman in his groundbreaking work on archetypal psychology.
The title of the series, Conversing with James Hillman, emphasizes the dialogic nature of this work, considering Hillman’s texts in psychological, philosophical, historical, cultural, and social frameworks. Conversing with James Hillman supports the mission of the James Hillman Symposiums to honor Hillman’s lifelong study of—in his own words—a “psychology deliberately affiliated with the arts, culture, and the history of ideas, arising as they do from the imagination.”
