Seated in her nest of ashes, Cinderella embodies human misery. The essence of inner and outer nobility, she is the envy of her cruel stepmother and her ugly sisters. Using this familiar story, Ann and Barry Ulanov explore the psychological and theological aspects of envy and goodness. In their interpretation of the tale, they move back and forth between internal and external issues - from how feminine and masculine parts of persons fit or do not together to how individuals conduct their lives with those of the same and opposite sexes, how they conflict, compete, or join harmoniously.
This eloquent work speaks of the centrality of imagination in the life of the spirit. Ann and Barry Ulanov describe the imagination as a bridge between the psyche and the spirit. Using rich imagery drawn from literature, film, and their own experience as therapists, they unlock for us the healing power of our imagination. "Imagination heals by building a bridge sturdy enough to link us up, each of us, to the river of being already present in us, to the currents flowing through us and among us in our unconscious life." After describing this healing power of imagination, the authors go on to show how it is vital in the spiritual life: in preaching, prayer, teaching, counseling, and politics.
In Religion and the Unconscious, Ann and Barry Ulanov provide a thoughtful study of the relationship between religion and depth psychology.

Much has been written about the life and work of C.G. Jung, but little attention has been given to his effect on other modern thinkers and writers. Here, the work of many such people- theologians, philosophers, poets, composers, artists, novelists, painters, filmmakers, literary critics, and others- intersect with Jung. Ulanov discusses what they say- both positive and negative- about Jung's ideas and his influence on their own creative lives.
