Sigmund Freud, known for his controversial views in the field of psychology, had many other psychologists wanting to follow in his footsteps. One of these eager beings was Carl Jung. Carl Jung (1875-1961) was a Swiss psychiatrist and colleague of Sigmund Freud's. The two worked together for many years, even maintained a friendship, but when Jung's revolutionary work on the subject of the unconscious disagreed with the Freudian emphasis on sexual trauma, the two separated and went their own ways.
