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. Part II expands the case beyond the scientific-medical purview of the times and looks at the new opportunities afforded to women and assimilated Jews through growing equality and the modernization of urban life in 1920s Vienna. This book places Csonka’s case within the broader context of medical and psychological texts Freud’s own writings Jewish and queer history and modern Vienna’s urban and art history. Sigmund Freud and his Patient Margarethe Csonka will be of great interest to psychoanalysts in practice and in training and to readers interested in the history of gender and sexuality feminism modern European and urban history the history of psychoanalysis science and medicine and the history of ideas. | Sigmund Freud and his Patient Margarethe Csonka A Case of Homosexuality in a Woman in Modern Vienna

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?

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?

Confusion of Tongues A Return to Sandor Ferenczi

Confusion of Tongues A Return to Sandor Ferenczi

Sandor Ferenczi Sigmund Freud's brilliant pupil as well as an innovative psychoanalyst was silenced by various generations of his contemporaries until in the past decades his work began to be rediscovered. Certain aspects of his trauma theory in fact had never been thoroughly addressed particularly the connection he made between trauma and language. Miguel Gutierrez-Pelaez offers a new reading of Ferenczi by proposing a dialogue between the Hungarian psychoanalyst's work philosophy and contemporary psychoanalysis. Among the subjects covered the book delves into the vulnerability of children and Ferenczi's never-ending search for a cure the complex issue of war trauma and more specifically his anticipatory work in understanding the effects on the human psyche of the horrific experiences in concentration camps during World War II. These issues are raised against the backdrop of captivating figures like Jacques Lacan Emmanuel Levinas Giorgio Agamben Derrida Nietzsche and Primo Levi among others. | Confusion of Tongues A Return to Sandor Ferenczi

A Dangerous Legacy Judaism and the Psychoanalytic Movement

A Dangerous Legacy Judaism and the Psychoanalytic Movement

On 23rd July 1908 Sigmund Freud wrote to his colleague Karl Abraham: Rest assured that if my name were Oberhuber an obviously non-Jewish name in spite of everything my innovations would have met with far less resistance. From its beginning psychoanalysis has been seen as a Jewish affair and psychoanalysts have always been afraid of ending up in the position of the Jew - that of the outsider. In A Dangerous Legacy: Judaism and Psychoanalysis Hans Reijzer examines how psychoanalysts have managed that fear in the recent past and in the present. During his research which led him to Vienna Paris Amsterdam London Jerusalem Hamburg and Durban Reijzer encountered malicious as well as enlightening statements situations and incidents. A Dangerous Legacy is a striking study of an interesting area of research. Reijzer's conclusion is surprising: stereotypes about Jews are a factor not only in the everyday world but also in the psychoanalytic world as soon as Jews take part in it. | A Dangerous Legacy Judaism and the Psychoanalytic Movement

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

Transgenerational Haunting in Psychoanalysis Toxic Errands

Transgenerational Haunting in Psychoanalysis Toxic Errands

In this book Maurice Apprey continues his unique work on transgenerational haunting to explore how events in our ancestors' lives may be renegotiated and re-subjectivized in the present from within the therapeutic dyad. With an informed and impassioned voice that evokes the tragic psychic consequences of the unresolved silenced tragedies and transgressions that haunt subsequent generations Apprey illustrates how the analyst can unfold a patient's transference wishes and emancipate them from the unconscious projects or errands they have inherited. This can happen through a threefold process of excavating the unconscious sedimentations of ancestral history appropriating and reactivating the ancestral errands within the transference and subsequently decoding the patient's transference pressures. Expanding on Apprey's work about the analyst's field of inquiry and ways of listening in clinical practice this book illuminates the potential for a resolution rather than a re-enactment of the traumas that can haunt a family system across generations. Attending to the manifestation of transgenerational trauma through varied clinical material and informed by the thinking of Sigmund Freud among others this book will be essential reading for all psychoanalysts and psychotherapists. | Transgenerational Haunting in Psychoanalysis Toxic Errands
