Sinossi
Il Novecento è stato senza alcun dubbio il secolo della psicoanalisi. Ma, se fino a ieri ne abbiamo conosciuto il trionfo attraverso gli scritti e la viva voce di Sigmund Freud e dei suoi più stretti sodali, oggi, grazie alle documentatissime ricerche di Mikkel Borch-Jacobsen e Sonu Shamdasani, siamo in grado di ricostruirne anche i retroscena.

As a student of psychology in a country where some professors still think Freud is the best theoretician that ever existed, this book is just mind-blowing. And the point of view of how and why these ideas were (and still are in some circles) perpetuated is really interesting.
Definitely not what i expected. When is a debate fun? When there are 2 sides to the topic, when the intention of the writer is to validate theories, he is expected to validate rather than disproving(which is not the job of a writer who is into psychoanalysis). The same oedipus, electra, paternal, ma Leggi tutto
