'Five Lectures on Psycho-Analysis' is a collection of lectures delivered by the father of psychoanalysis. Sigismund Schlomo Freud was born on 6th May 1856, in the Moravian town of Príbor, now part of the Czech Republic. He studied a variety of subjects, including philosophy, physiology, and zoology, graduating with an MD in 1881. Freud made a huge and lasting contribution to the field of psychology with many of his methods still being used in modern psychoanalysis. He inspired much discussion on the wealth of theories he produced and the reactions to his works began a century of great psychological investigation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In reasoned progression he outlined core psychoanalytic concepts, such as repression, free association and libido. Of the various English translations of Freud's major works to appear in his lifetime, only one was authorized by Freud himself: The Standard Edition of the Complete Psychological Works of Sigmund Freud under the general editorship of James Strachey. Freud approved the overall editorial plan, specific renderings of key words and phrases, and the addition of valuable notes, from bibliographical and explanatory. Many of the translations were done by Strachey himself; the rest were prepared under his supervision. The result was to place the Standard Edition in a position of unquestioned supremacy over all other existing versions. Newly designed in a uniform format, each new paperback in the Standard Edition opens with a biographical essay on Freud's life and work --along with a note on the individual volume--by Peter Gay, Sterling Professor of History at Yale.

Book excerpt: In fall 1909, Dr. Sigmund Freud gave a series of five lectures at the 20th anniversary celebration of the opening of Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts. Joined by other speakers, including Carl Jung, this lecture series helped to disseminate the ideas of psychoanalysis on an international stage. Dr. Freud (b. 1856, d. 1939) was the founder of psychoanalysis, the clinical procedure of evaluating and treating mental disorders through revealing unconscious desires and repressed memories. While his work is not as popular today as it once was, it was revolutionary in its approach and has permeated nearly all of Western culture. Dr. Freud was a prolific writer and lecturer. In 1909, he made his only visit to the United States, where he presented this series of five lectures. Dr. Freud originally presented them in German, without notes. Freud later wrote them down, and translations were first published in The American Journal of Psychology in April 1910. The five lectures describe the origins and development of his theory of psychoanalysis, as far as it had reached in September 1909. In the first lecture, Dr. Freud explains how his colleague, Dr. Breuer, developed the foundations of psychoanalysis when Freud himself was a student. Dr. Breuer had a patient who was suffering from a long list of ailments, including paralysis on her right side, impaired vision, nausea, and the inability to speak. Attributing these symptoms to that vague malady "hysteria," Dr. Breuer attempted a "talking cure" with the patient and worked to discover her "psychic trauma" through hypnosis. The patient improved, and Drs. Breuer and Freud determined that unprocessed memories of traumatic experiences were causing her illness. In the second lecture, Dr. Freud shares the next evolution of psychoanalysis, in which he abandoned hypnotism. As he learned that not all patients could be hypnotized, he instead worked with them in their normal state. Through conversation and suggestion, Dr. Freud drew out the repressed memories that the patient couldn't normally recall, resolving the conflict between the patient's conscious and unconscious. In the third lecture, Dr. Freud moves on to the interpretation of dreams. He believed that dreams could reveal repressed wishes, if the true meaning could be ascertained. Through techniques like free association, Dr. Freud believed he and the patient could unlock the symbolism of dreams to reveal repressed desires. Freud's fourth lecture explores a topic that he knew to be controversial-how often he found that symptoms of disease root back to "impressions from the sexual life...and necessitate the assumption that to disturbances of the erotic sphere must be ascribed the greatest significance among the etiological factors of the disease." He acknowledged that this was not a popular view among his peers. But he found that when patients realized they could "disregard conventional restraints" in a doctor/patient relationship, they revealed truths that very often pointed to sexual causes. Finally, Dr. Freud discusses "transference," that phenomenon by which a neurotic "applies to the person of the physician a great amount of tender emotion." This process is crucial, he believed, in helping the patient to gain insight into their relationship patterns. It was his belief that bringing repressed desires into consciousness would help people to master them or sublimate them, for the good of both individuals and society. While Dr. Freud's trip to America was not perfect-he found Americans far too informal-he was delighted to find that the faculty at Clark University was familiar with his work. As Freud said himself in his autobiography, the trip was "the realization of some incredible daydream: psychoanalysis was no longer a product of delusion, it had become a valuable part of reality."
Download or read book After Freud Left written by John Burnham and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-05-04 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From August 29 to September 21, 1909, Sigmund Freud visited the United States, where he gave five lectures at Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts. This volume brings together a stunning gallery of leading historians of psychoanalysis and of American culture to consider the broad history of psychoanalysis in America and to reflect on what has happened to Freud’s legacy in the United States in the century since his visit. There has been a flood of recent scholarship on Freud’s life and on the European and world history of psychoanalysis, but historians have produced relatively little on the proliferation of psychoanalytic thinking in the United States, where Freud’s work had monumental intellectual and social impact. The essays in After Freud Left provide readers with insights and perspectives to help them understand the uniqueness of Americans’ psychoanalytic thinking, as well as the forms in which the legacy of Freud remains active in the United States in the twenty-first century. After Freud Left will be essential reading for anyone interested in twentieth-century American history, general intellectual and cultural history, and psychology and psychiatry.

Download or read book Debating Relational Psychoanalysis written by Jon Mills and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-06-10 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Debating Relational Psychoanalysis, Jon Mills provides an historical record of the debates that had taken place for nearly two decades on his critique of the relational school, including responses from his critics. Since he initiated his critique, relational psychoanalysis has become an international phenomenon with proponents worldwide. This book hopes that further dialogue may not only lead to conciliation, but more optimistically, that relational theory may be inspired to improve upon its theoretical edifice, both conceptually and clinically, as well as develop technical parameters to praxis that help guide and train new clinicians to sharpen their own theoretical orientation and therapeutic efficacy. Because of the public exchanges in writing and at professional symposiums, these debates have historical significance in the development of the psychoanalytic movement as a whole simply due to their contentiousness and proclivity to question cherished assumptions, both old and new. In presenting this collection of his work, and those responses of his critics, Mills argues that psychoanalysis may only advance through critique and creative refinement, and this requires a deconstructive praxis within the relational school itself. Debating Relational Psychoanalysis will be of interest to psychoanalysts of all orientations, psychotherapists, mental health workers, psychoanalytic historians, philosophical psychologists, and the broad disciplines of humanistic, phenomenological, existential, and analytical psychology.

Download or read book Child Development written by Rosalyn H. Shute and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-05-15 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Child Development: Theories and Critical Perspectives provides an engaging and perceptive overview of both well-established and recent theories in child and adolescent psychology. This unique summary of traditional scientific perspectives alongside critical post-modern thinking will provide readers with a sense of the historical development of different schools of thought. The authors also place theories of child development in philosophical and cultural contexts, explore links between them, and consider the implications of theory for practice in the light of the latest thinking and developments in implementation and translational science. Early chapters cover mainstream theories such as those of Piaget, Skinner, Freud, Maccoby and Vygotsky, whilst later chapters present interesting lesser-known theorists such as Sergei Rubinstein, and more recent influential theorists such as Esther Thelen. The book also addresses lifespan perspectives and systems theory, and describes the latest thinking in areas ranging from evolutionary theory and epigenetics, to feminism, the voice of the child and Indigenous theories. The new edition of Child Development has been extensively revised to include considerable recent advances in the field. As with the previous edition, the book has been written with the student in mind, and includes a number of useful pedagogical features including further reading, discussion questions, activities, and websites of interest. Child Development: Theories and Critical Perspectives will be essential reading for students on advanced courses in developmental psychology, education, social work and social policy, and the lucid style will also make it accessible to readers with little or no background in psychology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There exists, of course, few more famous figures in the field of psychology than Sigmund Freud. As the founding father of psychoanalysis, or the clinical method for treating psychopathology through dialogue between a patient and a psychoanalyst, his impact on the field of psychology cannot be overstated. Based on a series of lectures given at the University of Vienna in 1915, "Introductory Lectures on Psychoanalysis" builds upon Freud's earlier work "Five Lectures on Psycho-Analysis" to provide a comprehensive overview of the pioneer's work in the field of psychoanalysis. G. Stanley Hall describes in his preface that "these twenty-eight lectures to laymen are elementary and almost conversational. Freud sets forth with a frankness almost startling the difficulties and limitations of psychoanalysis, and also describes its main methods and results as only a master and originator of a new school of thought can do. These discourses are at the same time simple and almost confidential, and they trace and sum up the results of thirty years of devoted and painstaking research." "Introductory Lectures on Psychoanalysis" is a must read for those interested in the field of psychology and Freud's contribution to it. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.
