Freud, Psychoanalysis and Death

Meer over het boek

The book presents a compelling critique of how psychoanalytic theory has overlooked the topic of death, highlighting its status as a repressed subject within the field. It explores the implications of this neglect and argues for the necessity of integrating discussions of mortality into psychoanalytic practice and theory, thereby enriching the understanding of human psychology. Through this examination, it aims to challenge prevailing assumptions and encourage a deeper exploration of death's role in shaping the psyche.
