In Search of the Rose : C. G. Jung Meets Orson Welles

The reference is to H . G. Wells’s science fiction novel The Time Machine (London: William Heinemann, 1895).

Jung had some contact with Wells.

It seems that they met on one of Jung’s trips to London.

In 1926, Wells presented a striking account of a meeting with Jung in his book The World of William Clissold (London: Ernest Benn), pp. 91-96.

In 1929, Jung wrote to Walter Corti mentioning that he had recently met Wells at his house in Kusnacht, and recommended that Corti publish a translation of Wells’s God, the Invisible King (London: Cassell, 1917); see Letters l , p. 69 .

Jung described his impressions of Wells to Aniela Jaffe (MP, p. 13). ~The Black Books, Vol. VII, Page 202, fn 143
