AtD, co-conscious

[Mark Kohut]

You found it in William James?..That's a great find.....
  I think that when Freud found 'the unconscious'. he was talking about the same thing, or kind of thing?......for Freud, it was an archeaological metaphor, so to speak.
   
  I would like to know what Jung called it, whom TRP is said to have read even more than Freud..........perhaps fro Jung it was equal to the 'collective unconscious' co-existing with
  mainstream consciousness????

    William James is the earliest mention I could find.  I'm sure that Freud over in Vienna probably heard of it and so news spreads.
