The C.G. Jung Papers Collection at the ETH Zurich University Archives holds the principal archival corpus of Jung's life work: manuscripts, typescripts, transcribed seminars, working notes, and an estimated thirty-two thousand letters spanning 1897 to 1961. Jung bequeathed the papers to ETH Zurich, the federal technical university where he taught in the 1930s and early 1940s, and the materials arrived at the ETH Library beginning in 1980. A substantial portion of the collection has been digitised and is accessible online through the e-manuscripta.ch platform.
