Freudian Psychology

Sigmund Freud revolutionized the way in which we think about ourselves. From its beginnings as a theory of neurosis Freud developed psychoanalysis into a general psychology, which became widely accepted as the predominant mode of discussing personality and interpersonal relationships. Anthony Storr goes one step further and investigates the status of Freud's legacy today and the disputes that surround it.

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) reveals himself in this autobiography, which is simultaneously an account of the early history of psychoanalysis, to have been an outsider from the start. This fascinating account describes the journey of a young, Jewish doctor setting out to find his way in the world of professional medicine, his relationships and collaborations, friendships made and lost and his investigations into cocaine, hypnosis and the cathartic method which contributed to the evolution of his conceptual framework and practices.

Esta obra recoge el resultado de las conferencias de introducción impartidas por Freud entre 1915 a 1917. Si bien hay muchas otras obras que recogen lo expuesto aquí, consideramos que al ser estas conferencias dirigidas a un publico ajeno a la psicología y al psicoanálisis, puede ser de fácil aproximación para un lector casual. Este primer volumen se aproxima a los olvidos, los actos fallidos y las equivocaciones.

Les années Freud racontent l'histoire de l'introduction de la psychanalyse en France : la rencontre de Freud et de Charcot, la découverte de l'hystérie, la fondation à Vienne du premier Cercle freudien, l'essor international du mouvement et, en contrepoint, l'aventure des grands pionniers français. Les années Lacan relatent l'évolution de la psychanalyse au sein de la culture française à partir de 1925, et l'émergence de la deuxième implantation du freudisme dans ce pays autour de la personnalité de Jacques Lacan.

Après avoir évoqué les origines de la psychanalyse, les "Cinq Leçons sur la psychanalyse" exposent les traits fondamentaux de la méthode. Freud y propose l'explication de l'hystérie et du refoulement, ainsi que le rôle des rêves. Il éclaire aussi la sexualité infantile et s'interroge sur la libido au travers du complexe d'Œdipe. Enfin, il analyse la névrose, le transfert et la sublimation.

"200 Quotes on Psychoanalysis" is a collection of wisdom from two pioneers in the world of mental health. Sigmund Freud was the creator of psychoanalysis, which is a therapeutic technique that involves talking about personal experiences in order to uncover and address unconscious feelings, thoughts, and memories. Carl Jung took these theories further, and between them, their work continues to influence our thoughts on mental health to this day. This compilation contains 200 quotes from these two giants of psychoanalysis.

In And It Was All Your Fault, the author and humanistic psychologist Roman Gelperin will teach you all about the little-known causes, cures, and unseen inner psychology of depression. Having personally experienced depression, consumed all the best literature and research on the subject, and for a year-and-a-half even dated a girl with a long history of depression while writing this book, the author weaves introspection, interpersonal observation, and cutting-edge research into a masterful and eye-opening narrative explaining depression.

Segundo o autor, o audiolivro é "uma investigação sobre as formas de amor, sobre suas interveniências políticas, sobre a possibilidade de ficar junto e separado". Esse é o pano de fundo para um cuidadoso trabalho de reflexão psicanalítica sobre a experiência de sofrimento própria da vida contemporânea.

Comment les premières sociétés se sont-elles construites ? Sur quels repères moraux et spirituels ont-elles fondé leur organisation ? Telles sont les questions complexes que Freud explore dans cet ouvrage qui applique les enseignements de la psychanalyse à l’anthropologie. L’approche est originale : pour remonter aux racines de l’ordre social et moral, l’auteur s’appuie conjointement sur un raisonnement spéculatif (le mythe scientifique) et sur les travaux d’ethnologues contemporains tels que Charles Darwin et James Frazer.

Finding evidence in new psychological research, the myth of Psyche and Cupid, Shakespeare’s plays, Freud’s case histories, Anne Frank’s diaries and contemporary novels, Carol Gilligan discovers that the roots of a more hopeful view of love are all around us.

In Transformation: Emergence of the Self, noted analyst and author Murray Stein explains what this process is, and what it means for an individual to experience it. Transformation usually occurs at midlife, but is much more complicated than what we colloquially call a midlife crisis. Consciously working through this life stage can lead people to become who they are and have always potentially been. Indeed, Stein suggests, transformation is the essential human task.

In this study, Fromm argues that man needs to analyze his unconscious thoughts, his dreams, and his conscious fantasies, as they reflect a universal and symbolic representation of himself.

Sigmund Freud’s “The Interpretation of Dreams” has been described as one of the most important books of the 20th century. As a result of the perception, however, that it is a lengthy and complex work, Freud embarked on the task of compiling a more brief and simplified version of his ideas on the interpretation of dreams. The results of this labor are presented in "On Dreams". From the time of its appearance, a large and loyal audience of scholars, experts and curious learners have relied on this work for a trusted and systematic exposition of Freud's theory of dreams.

In Racial Melancholia, Racial Dissociation critic David L. Eng and psychotherapist Shinhee Han draw on case histories from the mid-1990s to the present to explore the social and psychic predicaments of Asian American young adults from Generation X to Generation Y. Combining critical race theory with several strands of psychoanalytic thought, they develop the concepts of racial melancholia and racial dissociation to investigate changing processes of loss associated with immigration, displacement, diaspora, and assimilation.

1915, ein Jahr nach Ausbruch des 1.Weltkriegs veröffentlichte Sigmund Freud seinen Aufsatz "Zeitgemäßes über Krieg und Tod", in dem er zum einen über seine Enttäuschung nachdenkt, dass mit dem Krieg die bereits errungen geglaubte Stufe der Kultur wieder verlassen wurde. Zum anderen reflektiert er darüber, wie und warum der Krieg sein Verhältnis zum Tod verändert und wodurch dies bedingt wird. Freud aber wäre nicht Freud, wenn er in sein Nachdenken nicht auch bereits in der Psychoanalyse aufgestellte Theorien und daraus gewonnene Erkenntnisse einfließen lassen würde.

Qui, parmi nous, n'a pas eu à souffrir d'une histoire plus ou moins lourde, plus ou moins secrète, culpabilisante, que nous répétons inlassablement ? Pourquoi faisons-nous avec obstination de mauvais choix en amour ? Pourquoi multiplions-nous des échecs que rien en apparence ne justifie ? Pourquoi tombons-nous malades, pourquoi souffrons-nous d'un trouble qui n'a rien de génétique mais qui s'est déjà manifesté chez l'un de nos ancêtres et à l'âge que, précisément, nous atteignons ?

Defenses are mental operations that restore or maintain psychic equilibrium when people feel that they cannot manage emotions that stem from conflict; they remove components of unpleasant emotions from conscious awareness. In this audiobook, Blackman catalogs 101 defenses - the most ever compiled - with descriptions practical for use in everyday assessment and treatment of psychopathology.
