Download or read book Childhood Experience and Personal Destiny written by William V. Silverberg and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This account of the genesis of personality and neurosis represents a return to the crossroads at which Freud found himself when faced with the collapse of his traumatic theory of the etiology of neurosis: a return and affirmation that Freud was sound in his first intuition that neurosis emerges from traumatic childhood experience and its specific details. But Silverberg rejects as too narrow Freud's definition--that this traumatic experience is sexual seduction by an adult--and gives in this book a broader, more comprehensive definition of childhood experience and a new working hypothesis for psychotherapy. Strength and weakness of the ego are regarded by Silverberg as roughly equivalent to mental health and mental illness respectively. He is concerned with the kind of childhood experience that favors growth or diminution of this ego strength. He stresses the ego's functions and its mode of operation as well as interpersonal relationships and environmental factors of childhood experience. Specifically, the book is about the child growing up in our culture. The experiences of early life are discussed as children usually have them in the process of being brought up by parents of our culture. Although these successive areas of individual experience have not the universal and biologic significance which Freud ascribed to the genesis of libido, they parallel, more or less, the Freudian phases. Problems of deprivation in the oral area are followed by those of obedience, conformity, rebelliousness in the disciplinary area (Freud's anal phase) and by problems of comparison, competition, and genitality in the phallic area. For each area the author investigates the typical adaptations to the difficulties encountered by the child. He offers many keenly observed examples of solutions that are "normal" as well as pathologic in our culture. He brings out the vast difference and conflict between adaptations that are biologically successful or culturally successful. He shows that all experience of childhood involves parental love and approval, and that the child is as much concerned with maintaining these as with reaching pleasure goals. Since psychopathologic patterns are the result of experiences in the life history of the child and are therefore acquired, new experience can result in new and different psychologic patterns. A person can break his formed patterns of behavior by a process that leads to new self-understanding and from there to new adaptation. In this possibility lie the problem, the task, and the hope of psychotherapy"--Jacket. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2014 APA, all rights reserved)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This early work by Sigmund Freud was originally published in 1920 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'A General Introduction to Psychoanalysis' contains Freud's theories on the psychology of dreams, sexual development, neuroses, and other aspects 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: One of the most original psychoanalysts after Freud, Karen Horney pioneered such now familiar concepts as alienation, self-realization, and the idealized image, and she brought to psychoanalysis a new understanding of the importance of culture and environment. Karen Horney was born in Hamburg, Germany, in 1885 and studied at the University of Berlin, receiving her medical degree in 1913. From 1914 to 1918 she studied psychiatry at Berlin-Lankwitz, Germany, and from 1918 to 1932 taught at the Berlin Psychoanalytic Institute. She participated in many international congresses, among them the historic discussion of lay analysis, chaired by Sigmund Freud. Dr. Horney came to the United States in 1932 and for two years was Associate Director of the Psychoanalytic Institute, Chicago. In 1934 she came to New York and was a member of the teaching staff of the New York Psychoanalytic Institute until 1941, when she became one of the founders of the Association for the Advancement of Psychoanalysis and the American Institute for Psychoanalysis. In Neurosis and Human Growth, Dr. Horney discusses the neurotic process as a special form of the human development, the antithesis of healthy growth. She unfolds the different stages of this situation, describing neurotic claims, the tyranny or inner dictates and the neurotic's solutions for relieving the tensions of conflict in such emotional attitudes as domination, self-effacement, dependency, or resignation. Throughout, she outlines with penetrating insight the forces that work for and against the person's realization of his or her potentialities. This 40th Anniversary Edition includes a new preface by Stephanie Steinfeld, Ph.D., and Jeffrey Rubin, M.D., of the American Institute for Psychoanalysis.

Download or read book Self Analysis written by Karen Horney and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1999. Psychoanalysis first developed as a method of therapy in the strict medical sense. Freud had discovered that certain circumscribed disorders that have no discernible organic basis-such as hysterical convulsions, phobias, depressions, drug addictions, functional stomach upsets --can be cured by uncovering the unconscious factors that underlie them. In the course of time disturbances of this kind were summarily called neurotic. Therefore humility as well as hope is required in any discussion of the possibility of psychoanalytic self-examination. It is the object of this book to raise this question seriously, with all due consideration for the difficulties involved.

Download or read book The History of the Psychoanalytic Movement written by Sigmund Freud and published by . This book was released on 1917 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If in what follows I bring any contribution to the history of the psychoanalytic movement nobody must be surprised at the subjective nature of this paper, nor at the rôle which falls to me therein. For psychoanalysis is my creation; for ten years I was the only one occupied with it, and all the annoyance which this new subject caused among my contemporaries has been hurled upon my head in the form of criticism. Even today, when I am no longer the only psychoanalyst, I feel myself justified in assuming that none can know better than myself what psychoanalysis is, wherein it differs from other methods of investigating the psychic life, what its name should cover, or what might better be designated as something else. - Sigmund Freud Please Note: This book is easy to read in true text, not scanned images that can sometimes be difficult to decipher.
