Meer over het boek

Exploring the significance of spoken language in Freud's psychoanalytic practice, Ana-María Rizzuto argues that Freud's attention to patients' words revealed the intricacies of the unconscious. By pioneering the concept of "talking therapy," he established a foundational approach that continues to influence contemporary psychoanalysis. This work critically examines Freud's writings to illuminate the dynamics of verbal interactions in therapy, emphasizing their role in understanding the psyche and advancing psychoanalytic theory.
