Psychoanalysis And The Humanities

Portada
Laurie Adams, Jacques Szaluta
Routledge, 2013 M08 21 - 176 páginas
First published in 1996. Written by distinguished artists and scholars with psychoanalytic training, this seminal collection of essays spans the humanities-painting, sculpture, literature, history, anthropology, and philosophy-illustrating how psychoanalytic thinking can power­fully enhance these disciplines. The essayists address a question first posed by Freud in his 1919 article, Should Psychoanalysis Be Taught at the University? With a resounding Yes, they underline the intellectual enrichment to be gained from the application of the psychoanalytic method to humanistic disciplines and, conversely, the need for contemporary psy­choanalysts to acquire the kind of historical and classical education taken for granted by their counterparts earlier in this century.
