Abstract:
'Freud's Women' explores the relationships with the women of his immediate family (e.g. his daughter Anna), his female patients and his female colleagues, o.a. Lou Andreas-Salomé, Helene Deutsch, and Marie Bonaparte. It also includes his intellectual daughters in the debates within psychoanalysis and beyond it about the psychology of women. The authors have collected biographical material about these women and in the main part of the book they present, along with a brief personal history of each one, an account of the interaction each of them had with Freud (1856-1939). In the final quarter of the book the history of Freud's ideas about women's psychosexual development and the ensuing controversies are outlined and considered. Originally published in 1992.
