Freud and Culture

Freud and Culture

In this book Eric Smadja explores the representations of society and culture that Freud developed in the course of his work. Distinct from contemporary sociological and anthropological conceptions they led to his construction of a personal socio-anthropology that was virulently criticised by the social sciences. But what exactly is meant here by 'culture' and 'society'? Do we mean Freud's own Viennese society or Western 'civilised' society in general? In addition Freud was interested in historical and 'primitive' societies from the evolutionist perspective of the British anthropologists of his time. This book considers the interrelationship between these different societies and cultures and raises many questions. What constitutes a culture? What are its essential traits its functions its relationships with society with nature and with other aspects of 'reality' or of the 'external world'? How did Freud construct the idea of culture? What roles does culture play in the development of the individual in the construction and functioning of his or her psyche? | Freud and Culture

Freud Alder and Jung Discovering the Mind

Freud Alder and Jung Discovering the Mind

Walter Kaufmann completed this the third and final volume of his landmark trilogy shortly before his death in 1980. The trilogy is the crowning achievement of a lifetime of study writing and teaching. This final volume contains Kaufmann's tribute to Sigmund Freud the man he thought had done as much as anyone to discover and illuminate the human mind. Kaufmann's own analytical brilliance seems a fitting reflection of Freud's and his acute commentary affords fitting company to Freud's own thought. Kaufmann traces the intellectual tradition that culminated in Freud's blending of analytic scientific thinking with humanistic insight to create a poetic science of the mind. He argues that despite Freud's great achievement and celebrity his work and person have often been misunderstood and unfairly maligned the victim of poor translations and hostile critics. Kaufmann dispels some of the myths that have surrounded Freud and damaged his reputation. He takes pains to show how undogmatic how open to discussion and how modest Freud actually was. Kaufmann endeavors to defend Freud against the attacks of his two most prominent apostate disciples Alfred Adler and Carl Gustav Jung. Adler is revealed as having been jealous hostile and an ingrate a muddled thinker and unskilled writer and remarkably lacking in self-understanding. Jung emerges in Kaufmann's depiction as an unattractive petty and envious human being an anti-Semite an obscure and obscurantist thinker and like Adler lacking insight into himself. Freud on the contrary is argued to have displayed great nobility and great insight into himself and his wayward disciples in the course of their famous fallings-out. | Freud Alder and Jung Discovering the Mind

The Trauma of Freud

The Trauma of Freud

Over one hundred years have passed since Sigmund Freud first created psychoanalysis. The new profession flourished within the increasing secularization of Western culture and it is almost impossible to overestimate its influence. Despite its traditional aloofness from ethical questions psychoanalysis attracted an extraordinary degree of sectarian bitterness. Original thinkers were condemned as dissidents and renegades and the merits of individual cases have been frequently mixed up with questions concerning power and ambition as well as the future of the movement. In The Trauma of Freud Paul Roazen shows how despite this contentiousness Freud's legacy has remained central to human selfawareness. Roazen provides a much-needed sequence and perspective on the memorable issues that have come up in connection with the history of Freud's school. Topics covered include the problem of seduction Jung's Zurich school Ferenczi's Hungarian following and the influence of Melanie Klein and Anna Freud in England. Also highlighted are Lacanianism in France Erik Erikson's ego psychology and Sandor Rado's innovations. In considering these historical cases and related public scandals Roazen continually addresses important general issues concerning ethics and privacy the power of orthodoxy creativity and the historiography of psychoanalysis. Throughout he argues that rival interpretations are a sign of the intellectual maturity and sophistication of the discipline. Vigorous debate is healthy and essential in avoiding ill-considered and dogmatic self-assurance. He observes that potential zealotry lies just below the surface of even the most placid psychoanalytic waters even today. Examining the past so much a part of the job of scholarship may involve challenging those who might have preferred to let sleeping dogs lie. Roazen emphasizes that Freud's approach rested on the Socratic conviction that the unexamined life is not worth living and that this constitutes the spiritual basis of its influence beyond immediate clinical concerns. The Trauma of Freud is a major contribution to the historical literature on psychoanalysis.

Tailings Dam Design / Conception des Barrages de Stériles Miniers Technology Update / Mise à Jour des Technologies

Tailings Dam Design / Conception des Barrages de Stériles Miniers Technology Update / Mise à Jour des Technologies

Tailings are produced from the processing of mineral ores and are commonly stored within embankment dams. The design of the dams requires application of sound engineering principles and an understanding of the properties of the tailings. This Bulletin provides a framework for classifying different types of tailings ranging from ultra-fine to coarse based on their geotechnical properties and provides typical geotechnical parameters for the different tailings types. Technologies for dewatering tailings to reduce the risk of storage continue to be developed and the different technologies from thickening to filtration and re-application of old technologies are presented to illustrate the options available and where appropriate typical in situ properties. This bulletin is directed towards a wide audience of stakeholders: designers owners regulators communities and various organizations and provides a reference for communicating tailings properties and the benefits and limitations of technologies. All mining operations and thereby tailings operations are unique. There is no one-solution-fits-all. Tailings dam designs need to account for site-specific conditions such as climate physiography geochemistry geomorphology seismology mining processes environment and community setting with the application of technologies playing an important role in developing safe sustainable tailings facilities. Les stériles miniers sont produits à partir du traitement des minerais et sont généralement stockés derrière des barrages en remblai. La conception des barrages nécessite l'application de principes d'ingénierie solides et une compréhension des propriétés des résidus. Ce bulletin fournit un cadre pour classer différents types de résidus allant de l'ultra-fin au grossier en fonction de leurs propriétés géotechniques et propose des paramètres géotechniques typiques pour les différentes sortes de résidus. Les technologies d'assèchement des résidus pour réduire le risque de stockage continuent à être développées ; les différentes technologies de l'épaississement à la filtration en passant par l’application des anciennes technologies sont présentées pour illustrer les options disponibles et le cas échéant les propriétés in situ typiques. Ce bulletin s'adresse à un large public d'intervenants : concepteurs propriétaires régulateurs communautés et organisations diverses et fournit une référence pour communiquer les propriétés des résidus et les avantages et les limites des technologies. Toutes les opérations minières et par conséquent les traitements des résidus sont uniques. Il n'y a pas de solution unique pour tous. La conception des barrages de résidus doit tenir compte des conditions propres au site telles que le climat la physiographie la géochimie la géomorphologie la sismologie les processus miniers l'environnement et le milieu communautaire l'application de technologies jouant un rôle important dans le développement de parcs à résidus sûrs et durables. | Tailings Dam Design / Conception des Barrages de Stériles Miniers Technology Update / Mise à Jour des Technologies

Feminine Law Freud Free Speech and the Voice of Desire

Feminine Law Freud Free Speech and the Voice of Desire

Feminine Law: Freud Free Speech and the Voice of Desire explores the conjunction between psychoanalysis and democracy in particular their shared commitments to free speech. In the process it demonstrates how lawful constraints enable an embodied space or gap for the potentially disruptive but also liberating and novel flow of desire and its symbols. This space intuited by the First Amendment as it is by Freud's free association enables personal and collective sovereignty. By naming a feminine law we mark the primacy a space between the conceivable and the inconceivable between knowledge and mystery. What do political free speech and psychoanalytic free association have in common besides the word free? And what do Sigmund Freud and Justice Louis Brandeis share besides a world between two great wars? How is the female body a neglected key to understanding the conditions and contradictions of free discourse? Drs. Jill Gentile and Michael Macrone take up these questions and more in their wide-ranging often passionate exploration of the hidden legacy of Freud and the Founding Fathers. | Feminine Law Freud Free Speech and the Voice of Desire

What is this Professor Freud Like? A Diary of an Analysis with Historical Comments

What is this Professor Freud Like? A Diary of an Analysis with Historical Comments

In 1921 a young female doctor started analysis with Sigmund Freud. In a diary she recorded what moved her. The present volume not only contains a full translation of these records but also collects four essays by two psychoanalysts and two analytical historians who take their cue from the young doctor's notes to think about Freud and his methods. The discovery of the diary marks a small sensation for the history of social science. Three factors make the document unique: first it records not a training analysis but the analysis of an actual patient second the analysis took place before Freud fell ill with cancer and third the analysand obviously noted down what was said in the practice word by word. | What is this Professor Freud Like?

Environmental Fluid Mechanics - Méchanique des Fluides Environnementaux

Environmental Fluid Mechanics - Méchanique des Fluides Environnementaux

Dams are planned constructed and operated to meet human needs - generation of energy irrigated agricultural production flood control public and industrial supply supply of drinking water and various other purposes. Dams impound water in reservoirs during times of high flood that can be used for human requirements during times with inadequate natural flows. Positive impacts of dams are improved flood control improved welfare resulting from new access to irrigation and drinking water. Without dams there would be insufficient food to feed the world’s people and energy would be generated by burning fossil fuels that produce greenhouse gases. Despite this progress there remain significant concerns about the environmental impacts of dams. These environmental impacts are complex and far reaching remote of the dam and may occur in time with the dam construction or later and may lead to a loss of biodiversity and of productivity of natural resources. This bulletin compiles improvements in knowledge and state of the art technology to avoid or mitigate environmental impacts of dams on the natural ecosystem as well as to the people that depend upon them for their livelihood and also addresses the mitigation of environmental impacts on dams and reservoirs. Les barrages sont planifiés construits et exploités de manière à répondre aux besoins humains. Les barrages retiennent l'eau dans les réservoirs pendant les périodes de forte crue une eau qui peut être utilisée pour les besoins de l'homme pendant les périodes d’insuffisance des débits naturels. Les impacts positifs de barrages sont le contrôle des crues et l'amélioration du bien-être résultant du nouvel accès à l'irrigation et à l'eau potable. Sans barrages la production alimentaire serait insuffisante pour nourrir la population du globe et l'énergie serait générée en brûlant des combustibles fossiles qui produisent des gaz à effet de serre. Malgré ces progrès d'importantes préoccupations subsistent quant aux retombées des barrages sur l’environnement. Les impacts environnementaux sont complexes et d’une grande portée. Ils peuvent se produire au moment de la construction du barrage ou plus tard et peuvent entraîner une perte de la biodiversité et de la productivité des ressources naturelles. Le présent bulletin compile l'amélioration des connaissances et des technologies les plus récentes pour éviter ou atténuer les impacts environnementaux des barrages sur l'écosystème naturel ainsi que pour les personnes qui en dépendent pour leur subsistance. Il aborde également l'atténuation des impacts environnementaux sur les barrages et les réservoirs. | Environmental Fluid Mechanics - Méchanique des Fluides Environnementaux

On Symbolism and Symbolisation The Work of Freud Durkheim and Mauss

On Symbolism and Symbolisation The Work of Freud Durkheim and Mauss

In On Symbolism and Symbolisation: The Work of Freud Durkheim and Mauss Éric Smadja returns to the end of the 19th century and explores how the concepts of symbolism and symbolisation have been discussed among theorists and how this discussion has developed and revolutionised the human sciences as we know them today. Uniquely he connects three key thinkers of psychoanalysis sociology and ethnology – Freud Durkheim and Mauss – and discusses how their diverse epistemological paths blend and have consequently shaped our representation of humanity society and culture in the 20th and 21st centuries. In this innovative work Smadja provides a complete biographical journey of these three influential founders beginning with a dedicated chapter on Freud followed by Durkheim and then Mauss. He explains each of their revolutionary creations – Freud’s psychoanalysis Durkheim’s French school of sociology and Mauss’s modern French ethnology – before exploring their ground-breaking yet differing conceptions of symbolism and symbolisation offering a discussion of specific and common aspects detected between these conceptions. In his conclusions Smadja focusses on France to examine what became of their thoughts after the second half of the 20th century. He inspects the fields of French anthropology sociology and psychoanalysis: Lévi-Strauss and his structuralist revolution his colleagues Françoise Héritier and Maurice Godelier Pierre Bourdieu who was an ethnologist before becoming a sociologist and of course Lacan. On Symbolism and Symbolisation: The Work of Freud Durkheim and Mauss is a pioneering work that will appeal to psychoanalysts in practice and in training and to academics and students of psychology anthropology sociology philosophy and the history of ideas. It will also be of interest to anyone wanting to learn more about the life and work of these three major theorists and the connections between the human and social sciences. | On Symbolism and Symbolisation The Work of Freud Durkheim and Mauss

Schelling Freud and the Philosophical Foundations of Psychoanalysis Uncanny Belonging

Schelling Freud and the Philosophical Foundations of Psychoanalysis Uncanny Belonging

Schelling Freud and the Philosophical Foundations of Psychoanalysis provides a long-overdue dialogue between two seminal thinkers Schelling and Freud. Through a sustained reading of the sublime mythology the uncanny and freedom this book provokes the reader to retrieve and revive the shared roots of philosophy and psychoanalysis. Teresa Fenichel examines the philosophical basis for the concepts of the unconscious and for the nature of human freedom on which psychoanalysis rests. Drawing on the work of German philosopher F. W. J. Schelling the author explores how his philosophical understanding of human actions based as it was on the ideas of drives informed and helped shape Freud’s work. Fenichel also stresses the philosophical weight of Freudian psychoanalysis specifically in regards to the problem of freedom and argues that psychoanalysis complicates and reinforces Schelling’s basic idea: to know reality we must engage with the world empathetically and intimately. This book also serves as an introduction to Schelling’s thought arguing that his metaphysics—particularly concerning the primacy of the unconscious and of fantasy—can be read as a therapeutic endeavor. Finally the book offers a deep rethinking of the action and nature of sublimation through both Freud’s and Schelling’s texts. Fenichel suggests psychoanalytic therapy is self-interpretation—a recognition of our narratives as narratives without for that reason taking them any less seriously. Schelling Freud and the Philosophical Foundations of Psychoanalysis will be of great interest to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists as well as scholars of philosophy. | Schelling Freud and the Philosophical Foundations of Psychoanalysis Uncanny Belonging

The Secret Symmetry of Maimonides and Freud

The Secret Symmetry of Maimonides and Freud

The Secret Symmetry of Maimonides and Freud presents the parallels between The Guide of the Perplexed and The Interpretation of Dreams considering how Maimonides might be perceived as anticipating Freud’s much later work. The Secret Symmetry of Maimonides and Freud suggests that humankind has secrets to hide and does so by using common mechanisms and embedding revealing hints for the benefit of the true reader. Using a psychoanalytic approach in tandem with literary criticism and an in-depth assessment of Judaica Szajnberg demonstrates the similarities between these two towering Jewish intellectual pillars. Using concepts of esoteric literature from the Torah and later texts this book analyses their ideas on concealing and revealing to gain a renewed perspective on Freud’s view of dreams. Throughout Szajnberg articulates the challenges of reading translated works and how we can address the pitfalls in such translations. The book is a vital read for psychoanalysts in training and practice as well as those interested in Judaica the history of ideas and early medieval studies.

Identity Gender and Sexuality 150 Years After Freud

Identity Gender and Sexuality 150 Years After Freud

While Freud opened the door on the formative and motivating power of sexuality contemporary psychoanalysts with some notable exceptions have consigned sexuality to the psychoanalytic closet. This book not only re-opens the door on the broad subject of psychosexuality but also provides fresh insights into heterosexuality bisexuality homosexuality gender identity disorder transvestism and transsexualism. This publication brings together some of the leading psychoanalytic authorities from around the globe to consider in depth the complex interweaving of identity gender and sexuality from theoretical clinical historical and research perspectives. The author strongly recommends Identity Gender and Sexuality to those looking for a book that does not pull punches. The reader will find a debate about the relative merits of clinical empirical and conceptual research critical assessments of interdisciplinary findings from infant and child development research embodied cognitive science academic psychology neurobiology genetics ethology and other fields of inquiry and honest and illuminating psychoanalytic case studies.

Sedimentation and Sustainable Use of Reservoirs and River Systems / Sédimentation et Utilisation Durable des Réservoirs et Systèmes Fluviaux

ICOLD Bulletin 147 discusses the upstream and downstream fluvial morphological impacts of reservoir sedimentation and possible mitigation measures. The current state of and possible future sediment deposition in reservoirs have been investigated globally with the aid of the ICOLD Register on Dams. The global mean reservoir sedimentation rate was found to be 0. 8 % of the original storage capacity per year. The book also investigates the impacts of dams on the ecology related to fluvial morphological changes and guidelines are proposed to mitigate the impacts on the downstream river morphology. Finally an economical model is presented which considers a life cycle approach for reservoir conservation. Ce CIGB Bulletin 147 traite des impacts morphologiques fluviaux en amont et en aval de la sédimentation des réservoirs et des mesures d'atténuation possibles. L'état actuel et l'avenir possible du dépôt de sédiments dans les réservoirs ont été étudiés à l'échelle mondiale à l'aide du registre des barrages de la CIGB. Le taux moyen mondial de sédimentation des réservoirs s'est avéré être de 0 8 % de la capacité de stockage initiale par an. Le livre étudie également les impacts des barrages sur l'écologie liés aux changements morphologiques fluviaux et des directives sont proposées pour atténuer les impacts sur la morphologie des rivières en aval.

The book investigates how the sexual has perturbed philosophical political and psychoanalytic thought and how this has fed into discrimination against the LGBTQI community. It analyses the social stigmas applied to public and private sexual acts and the psychopolitical processes leading to the prevalence of neo-fascist populism in Italy and the world. Tracing the history of sexuality through Freud Marx Fanon and Foucault among many others Bernini considers why the sexual has always been an exceptionally difficult object to consider in political theory. This book will be of key interest to scholars in queer theory; antisocial theory; psychoanalysis and politics; drive theory; political philosophy; critical theory; LGBTQIA+ issues; gender and sexuality studies; and Italian studies.

Seduction and Desire The Psychoanalytic Theory of Sexuality Since Freud

Seduction and Desire The Psychoanalytic Theory of Sexuality Since Freud

Modern society has introduced many new relationships and family forms and the pluralisation of sexual lifestyles in the hundred years since Freud. This book provides a systematic account of the current state of theory developing a gender-wide model of human sexuality and outlining the implications of this for psychotherapy practice. The author argues that the development of human sexuality follows no innate biological programs but takes place in an interpersonal relationship often established in the early parent-child relationship. Whereas the current psychoanalytic discourse emanates from a rather rigid division of gender relations emphasizing the differences between men and women the author develops a gender-wide model of human sexuality in which the 'masculine' and 'feminine' are integrated and contribute to the full diversity of gender identities and sexual varieties. She points to structural similarities of hetero-and homosexuality and perversion and calls for a general human sexuality that is based less on differences between men and women than with each other. | Seduction and Desire The Psychoanalytic Theory of Sexuality Since Freud

Occultism and the Origins of Psychoanalysis Freud Ferenczi and the Challenge of Thought Transference

Occultism and the Origins of Psychoanalysis traces the origins of key psychoanalytic ideas back to their roots in hypnosis and the occult. Maria Pierri follows Freud’s early interest in thought-transmission now known as telepathy. Freud’s private investigations led to discussions with other leading figures like Carl Jung and Sándor Ferenczi with whom he held a dialogue of the unconsciouses. Freud’s and Ferenczi’s work assessed how fortune tellers could read the past from a client inspiring their investigations into countertransference the analytic relationship unconscious communication and mother-infant relationality. Both Freud and Ferenczi tried in different ways to come close to understanding the infant’s occult link with the mother and their secret primal language: their research on thought transference may be identified as a matrix of the developments of current psychoanalysis. Pierri clearly links modern psychoanalytic practice with Freud’s interests in the occult using primary sources some of which have never previously been published in English. Occultism and the Origins of Psychoanalysis will be of great interest to psychoanalysts in practice and in training as well as academics and scholars of Freudian ideas psychoanalytic theory the history of psychology and the occult.

Psychoanalysis and the New Rhetoric Freud Burke Lacan and Philosophy's Other Scenes

Psychoanalysis and the New Rhetoric Freud Burke Lacan and Philosophy's Other Scenes

Psychoanalysis and the New Rhetoric: Freud Burke Lacan and Philosophy's Other Scenes is an innovative work that places the fields of psychoanalysis and rhetoric in dynamic resonance with one another. The book operates according to a compelling interdisciplinary conceit: Adleman provocatively explores the psychoanalytic aspects of rhetoric and Vanderwees probes the rhetorical dimensions of psychoanalytic practice. This thoroughly researched text takes a closer look at the missed encounter between rhetoric and psychoanalysis. The first section of the book explores the massive but underappreciated influence of Freudian psychoanalysis on Kenneth Burke’s new rhetoric. The book’s second section undertakes sustained investigations into the rhetorical dimensions of psychoanalytic concepts such as transference free association and listening. Psychoanalysis and the New Rhetoric then culminates in a more comprehensive discussion of Lacanian psychoanalysis in the context of Kenneth Burke’s new rhetoric. The book therefore serves as an invaluable aperture to the fields of psychoanalysis and rhetoric including their much overlooked disciplinary entanglement. Psychoanalysis and the New Rhetoric will be of great interest to scholars of psychoanalytic studies rhetoric language studies semiotics media studies and communication studies. | Psychoanalysis and the New Rhetoric Freud Burke Lacan and Philosophy's Other Scenes

The Psychology of Political Extremism What Would Sigmund Freud have Thought About Islamic State?

The Psychology of Political Extremism What Would Sigmund Freud have Thought About Islamic State?

Recent terrorist attacks have left the UK (and Europe) genuinely at sea as to how to respond to these distressing events. There are the predictable interpretations with politicians on the right talking about counter-terrorism harsher punishments and tightening up on the internet whilst on the political left there is talk about blaming foreign wars. All this analysis is relevant but insufficient. Politicians are not talking enough about why so many young people are sufficiently angry and alienated that they are prepared to be seduced by the toxic and poisonous ideology of Islamic State. The Psychology of Political Extremism examines both the politics and the psychology as well as what motivates people to behave in ways that are so disturbing. Freud is the hook as the founding father of the talking cure. A radical and subversive theorist in his time he claimed that mankind was influenced more by the inner workings of the mind and internal conflicts than by rational thought. | The Psychology of Political Extremism What Would Sigmund Freud have Thought About Islamic State?

Eros and Civilization A Philosophical Inquiry Into Freud

Eros and Civilization A Philosophical Inquiry Into Freud

Hailed as the 'Guru of the New Left' and a leading figure of 1960s counterculture and liberation movements the philosopher Herbert Marcuse is amongst the most renowned and controversial thinkers of the twentieth century. Eros and Civilization is one of his best-known books and brought him international fame. Taking his cue from Freud's view that repression of the instincts is a defining characteristic of the human mind Marcuse fuses Freud's insight with Marx's theories of alienation and oppression. He argues that rather than our instincts turned in on themselves it is modern capitalism itself that is preventing us from reaching the freedom we can find in a non-repressive society. A sweeping indictment of modern capitalism and consumerism that remains fresh and insightful Eros and Civilization is a classic of activist and radical thinking that continues to fire debate and controversy today. This Routledge Classics edition includes a new Foreword by Douglas Kellner. | Eros and Civilization A Philosophical Inquiry Into Freud

Sigmund Freud and his Patient Margarethe Csonka A Case of Homosexuality in a Woman in Modern Vienna

Sigmund Freud and his Patient Margarethe Csonka A Case of Homosexuality in a Woman in Modern Vienna

This book provides a historical analysis of one of Sigmund Freud’s least-studied cases published in 1920 as The Psychogenesis of a Case of Homosexuality in a Woman. Scholars of sexuality often focus on Freud’s writings on male homosexuality disregarding his views on homosexual women. This book serves as a corrective renewing and reinvigorating interest in Freud and demonstrating that his views on sexuality are as relevant today as ever. Part I introduces the case and explores Freud’s attitudes towards lesbianism radical among his medical colleagues in the early twentieth century. It also puts Margarethe Csonka the patient at its centre. Michal Shapira considers Freud’s only treatment of a female homosexual and assesses Csonka’s background life before and after the encounter.
