The newly published Encyclopedia of Psychology and Religion (2nd Vol.) is now available from <SpringerReference.com>. It is a library research tool, 3 volumes, and also in electronic format. I am one of the editors and I helped made sure that there is a strong selection of Jungian topics and authors, as well as Jungian-influenced religious themes -- goddesses, major Jungian thinkers, feminism, global religions, and symbolic/ritual themes. You might want to ask your library to order it. We will start working on the third edition soon, and topic suggestions are welcome from those who have looked at it, as well as potential authors.

Thanks for posting this for its exposure. I am most interested in input about the Holy Trinity. Could you post any material from it? Or should I wait and buy it ; )

Thanks for posting this for its exposure. I am most interested in input about the Holy Trinity. Could you post any material from it? Or should I wait and buy it ; ) Eridu, thanks for your kudos for the Encyclopedia. SpringerReference.com is a large international encyclopedia publisher. It publishes mostly library reference tools. You could encourage your library to subscribe to the Encyclopedia of Psychology and Religion online, or get the latest 2nd edition 3 volumes in book form. It is mainly a contemporary issues work, such as Jung and Jungians, Post-Jungians, Feminists and Goddesses, Nature Spirit, as well as the expected topics.. There are many articles on Trinity in Springer encyclopedias, including 108 in the Humanities category. Here is the author and abstract of one article on the Trinity in the Encyclopedia of Medieval Philosophy and Theology:Lee W. Bailey Author Stephen F. Brown Institute of Medieval Philosophy and Theology, Boston College, Chestnut Hill, USA Editor Prof. Henrik Lagerlund Department of Philosophy, The University of Western Ontario, London, Canada Trinity Humanities, Social Sciences and Law > Encyclopedia of Medieval Philosophy > Trinity Cite | History | Comment | Print | References | Image Gallery | Hide Links Logout Update Article Trinity Abstract The teaching that there are three persons in God is a fundamental Christian doctrine. It is taught in the Scriptures, especially, but not exclusively, in John's Gospel, where we learn that the Word who is God became flesh and where Christ, the Word-made-flesh, speaks of sending "to you from the Father the Spirit of truth who comes from the Father." Early Church councils established the basic doctrine that the three persons of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are one substance. Later theologians, especially Sts. Augustine and Thomas Aquinas, attempted to find and explore analogies that might bring greater understanding to this central article of the Christian Creed.
