According to the "contiguity" rule of psychoanalysis· (Freud, 1905, 1901, 39), the proximity of "paper on technique" to "large plaster cast of Michelangelo's Moses" suggests strongly that there is ...indeed a causal connection. Freud's first mention of the therapeutic significance of transference is in his 1905 Postscript to Fragment о fan analysis of a Case of Hysteria: ...it is only after the transference has been resolved that a patient arrives at a sense of conviction of the validity of the connections which have been constructed during the analysis. ...Transference, which seems ordained to be the greatest obstacle to psycho-analysis, becomes its most powerful ally, if the presence can be detected each time and explained to the patient. Forover four decades, until retirement, he was in private practice in Elizabethtown, KY., where he also held the position of chief psychologist of a regional mental health center for five years (1968-1973).
After being the subject of many studies up until 1914, totemism seemed to disappear from the literature. The publication of Freud’s work Totem and Taboo was initially greeted with silence, and ...subsequently with critical and hostile reactions. C. Lévi-Strauss was one of the few to devote a book to totemism but considered it as an illusion, although a number of prominent members of the English school of Social Anthropology contested this view, describing the direction adumbrated by Freud’s enquiry as “highly pertinent”.
Totemism appears in Freud’s work as a way of dealing with one of the canonical forms of human destructiveness, namely parricide. Why did eminent men find it impossible to utilise Freud’s book and those studies that followed it in the interwar period?
The mass murders in Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia, however different they may have been, both generated a profound sense of horror that made their consequences largely unrepresentable for Europeans for more than thirty years. Did this delay, and the attitudes of the following generations towards authority, result from an unconscious logic of “resistance” aimed at re-establishing refusals that did not take place at the time? The Western world seems to have forgotten the strength of the mixed family ties of tribes, casts, and religions that are in fact at work in the psychic life of a great number of men and women in the world.
This book investigates what was distinctive about the predisposition to psychosis Freud posited in Daniel Paul Schreber, a presiding judge in Saxonys highest court. It argues that Freuds 1911 ...Schreber text reversed the order of priority in late nineteenthcentury conceptions of the disposing causes of psychosis the objective-biological and subjective-biographical to privilege subjective disposition to psychosis, but without returning to the subjectivity of early nineteenth-century Romantic psychiatry and without obviating the legitimate claims of biological psychiatry in relation to hereditary disposition. While D. P. Schreber is the books reference point, this is not a general treatment of Schreber, or of Freuds reading of the Schreber case. It focuses rather on what was new in Freuds thinking on the disposition to psychosis, what he learned from his psychiatrist contemporaries and what he did not, and whether or not psychoanalysts have fully received his aetiology.

The concept of " screen memories " was introduced by Freud for the first time in his 1899 paper, reprinted here in its entirety. Although the clinical interest in "screen memories" has perhaps ...diminished in recent analytic discussion, there is much to be gained from revisiting and re-examining both the phenomenon and Freud's original paper within a contemporary context. To this end, the authors have invited contributions from eight leading psychoanalysts on the current meaning and value to them of the screen memory concept. These comments come from contemporary psychoanalysts practicing in Italy, Francophone Switzerland, Argentina, Israel, and the United States of America, each of whom has been trained in one or another of a variety of psychoanalytic traditions, among which are ego psychology, a French version of Freud, an American version of Lacan and at least two variants of Kleinian thought - one British and one Latin American.
This book, like the others in the series, presents a classic essay by Freud and discussions of the essay by prominent psychoanalytic teachers and analysts who differ in emphases and who come from ...different theoretical backgrounds and geographical locations. First presented as an informal lecture in 1907, "Creative Writers and Day-dreaming" pursues two lines of inquiry: it explores the origins of daydreaming and its relation to the play of children, and it investigates the creative process. Following an introduction by Ethel Spector Person, the contributors to this volume-Marcos Aguinis, Harry Trosman, Harold P. Blum, José A. Infante, Joseph Sandler and Anne-Marie Sandler, Ronald Britton, Janine Chasseguet-Smirgel, Elizabeth Tabak de Bianchedi, Robert N. Emde, and Moisés Lemlij-provide commentaries on Freud's essay, explicating the twists and turns in psychoanalytic theories of fantasy and in applied psychoanalysis. Their essays place Freud's paper in historical context, describe the clinical value of daydreams and fantasies, offer a Kleinian view of fantasy, provide analytic approaches to creativity and fantasy, comment on the ambiguity caused by multiple translations of Freud's text, and reframe the idea of fantasy from a modern biological and developmental approach.
La correspondance intégrale de Sigmund Freud et Marie Bonaparte, nouvellement éditée, est le témoignage du processus d'une véritable « analyse-navette », révélatrice de l'évolution des enjeux de ...l'analyse. Les premières années s'attachent à l'élucidation de la névrose infantile de Marie. Puis, l'élaboration de sa bisexualité alterne avec des mouvements compulsifs qui la poussent à des actes chirurgicaux devant lesquels l'analyse est impuissante. Mais l'élaboration progressive de ses identifications et l'accès aux deuils afférents lui permettent de passer d'une position de victime aux réalisations de l'analyste et de la Princesse, en « dernière des Bonaparte ».
Este artículo busca establecer una relación conceptual entre la palabra 'contraducción', propuesta por Niklas Bornhauser y Gianfranco Cattaneo, con la palabra Entstellung, tal como esta ha sido ...elaborada por la tradición que va desde Sigmund Freud hasta Werner Hamacher. En relación a este pasaje conceptual, pasaje entre palabras, habría que decir que algunas de ellas se refieren a sí mismas en un movimiento visible. Estas palabras dan vueltas sobre sí. Este giro deja una seña, una marca que las enseña en declinación, caída y desfallecimiento. Lo que describe a estas palabras es un exceso de sentido. La vuelta sobre sí de cada una de estas peculiares palabras indica una alteración, un cambio de dirección, un equívoco. Lo propio de estas palabras en ese exceso es su mutabilidad, su radical metamorfosis anagramática, su imposibilidad de adecuación al orden de sentidos de la lengua. La pa-labra 'contraducción' es una de ellas.
