内容説明

A response to the veritable renaissance in Freud studies, Freud: Appraisals and Reappraisals presents the readers with the fruits of recent scholarship on Freud, the man and scientist, and the origins and development of the psychoanalytic movement spawned by his work. The premier volume of this series offers three major essays embodying different tributaries of contemporary Freud research. Peter Swales, drawing on extensive archival research, reveals the identity and explores the life and times of the woman Freud terms his first "teacher," but presented to his readers only as the "Frau Caecilie M" of the Studies on Hysteria. Barry Silverstein brings together complementary strands of textual analysis and psychobiographical reconstruction in his provocative reconsideration of the circumstances surrounding Freud's lost papers on metapsychology. Finally, Edwin Wallace's integrative review of Freud's scattered remarks on ethics and morality, combined with his appraisal of Freud's personal ethics, yield a measured and scholarly account of Freud as "ethicist." Briefer essays on Freud and the oral tradition (Patrick Mahony), Freud's psychology of religion (Paul Stepansky), and recent assessments of Freud's character (John Gedo) round out a volume that is destined for a place of distinction in the secondary literature on Freud. Collectively, these essays represent a most auspicious debut for the new series; they admirably bear out Paul Stepansky's intent of "presenting readers with original articles that embody high scholarship an a thought-provoking and imaginative use of the fruits of this scholarship."

Volume 2 of the Freud: Appraisals and Reappraisals series bears out the promise of the acclaimed premier volume, a volume whose essays "breathe new life into the study of Freud," embodying research that "appears to be impeccable in every case" (International Review of Psychoanalysis). It begins with Peter Homan's detailed reeexamination of the period 1906-1914 in Freud's life. Looking to Freud's relationahips with Jung as the central event of the period, he finds in Freud's idealization and subsequent de-idealization of Jung a psychological motif that gains recurrent expression in Freud's later writings and personal relationships. Richard Geha offers a provocative protrait of Freud as a "fictionalist." Anchoring his exegesis in Freud's famous case of the Wolf Man, he argues that the yield of Freud's clinical inquiries, epistemologically, is a species of the fictionalism of Friedrich Nietzsche and Hans Vaihinger. But, pursuing the argument, Geha goes on to advance little-noted biographical evidence that Freud understood himself to be an artist whose clinical productions were ultimately artistic. Finally, Patricia Herzog organizes and interprets Freud's seemingly conflicting remarks about philosophy and philosophers en route to the claim that the long-held belief that Freud was an "anti-philosopher" is a myth. In fact, she claims, "Freud was in no doubt as to the philosophical nature of his goal." In an introductory essay titled "Pathways to Freud's Identity," editor Paul E. Stepansky brings together the essays of Homans, Geha, and Herzog as complementary inquiries into Freud's putative self-understanding and, to that extent, as reconstructive, historical continuations of the self-analysis methodically begun by Freud in the late 1890s. "Each contributor," writes Stepansky, "in his or her own way, seeks to understand Freud better in the spirit in which Freud might have better understood himself. Together, the contributors offer vistas to an enlarged self-analytic sensibility."

内容説明

Volume 3 of the Freud: Appraisals and Reappraisals series continues in the tradition of its illustrious predecessors, presenting readers with the fruits of continuing scholarship into the life of Sigmund Freud, and the relationship of this life to the discovery and presentation of psychoanalytic theory. In the fascinating essay that opens this volume, John Kerr shows Freud's death instinct of 1920 to be the denouement of Freud's continuing preoccupation with Jung and the theoretical revisions of the "Zurich School." In the person and writings of Sabina Spielrein, Jung's little-known protege (and one-time lover) from Zurich, he finds an actual embodiment of the link between Freud's reaction to Jung and his subsequent introduction of the death instinct. Having shown that Spielrein truly stands between Freud and Jung in important respects, Kerr goes on to argue that Freud's Beyond the Pleasure Principle cannot be dissociated from the theoretical, clinical, and political issues that bear the weight of the Freud-Jung relationship. Peter Swales follows with his historical reconstruction of Freud's encounter with the "Katharina" of the Studies on Hysteria. Having discovered the identity of this early "patient," Swales proceeds to offer a comprehensive account of her family's origins, circumstances, history, and the subsequent contact with Freud. This account, the product of a decade of research, ultimately yields a panoramic view of the cultural, professional, and intellectual world of the early Freud. Robert Holt's concluding essay on Freud's adolescent readings offers critical summaries of three of the major works that Freud read on his own as a gymnasium student in the early 1870s. Holt then explores the probable impact of these works on Freud - which is to say, on a youth with Freud's intellectual endowment, philosophical leanings, and cultural background. In his introductory essay, "Text, Context, and Freud," editor Paul Stepansky links the essays of Kerr, Swales, and Holt as complementary meditations on the relation between "text" and "context" in the history of ideas. For Kerr, Swales, and Holt, he writes, "text poses questions that only context can address, though context, in its turn, implicates the analysis of other texts in which, in their turn, call forth yet other aspects of context. The regress may appear infinite, but it is a reality of historical inquiry, and it is the charge of the historian of ideas to show that it need not be vicious."
