Freud Au Cas Par Cas - Lectures Philosophiques Des Cas Freudiens

by Gilles Ribault

50,35€ + 10% CARD

 Etudes philosophiques des cas freudiens<div>Dora, l’Homme aux rats, Hans, le Président Schreber, l’Homme aux loups… les cas freudiens sont célèbres, mais que sont-ils vraiment : des aperçus biographiques ? Des récits de cure ? On y a longtemps vu des témoignages de la manière dont les théories freudiennes ont « jailli » de l’expérience clinique. Les articles de ce recueil y font voir autre chose : des échantillons d’une pensée qui s’essaie, se met à l’épreuve, se corrige et se réinvente sans cesse ; des analyses qui interrogent la tension toujours précaire entre le normal et le pathologique. Psychanalyse et philosophie se rencontrent ici : qu’est-ce que bien vivre ? Etre en bonne santé, sans doute, s’il est vrai, comme l’affirme Freud, qu’il n’y a d’âme qu’incarnée. Mais existe-t-il une santé de l’âme ? Que serait une santé qui soit autant psychique que corporelle ? Les commentaires des grands cas freudiens réunis dans ce volume circulent à travers l''oeuvre fondatrice de la psychanalyse en questionnant autant qu''en instruisant. Philosophical analysis of Freud’s case studies Dora, the Rat Man, Little Hans, Judge Schreber, the Wolf Man ... Freud’s case studies are famous, but what are they really: biographical insights? Mere reports on therapy? They have long been considered as testimonials of how Freud’s theories originated in clinical experience. The articles in this collection, however, deal with these cases both as examples of a mode of thought that constantly examines, challenges, corrects and reinvents itself, and as examples of analyses that question the always precarious tension between the normal and the pathological. Psychoanalysis and philosophy come together here: what does ‘living well’ mean? To be healthy, no doubt, since, as stated by Freud, there is only incarnated soul. Does mental health exist? How are we to conceive health that is both psychological and corporeal? The commentaries on Freud’s best-known case studies in this volume flow through the founding work of psychoanalysis in a questioning as well as explanatory way.</div><div> This publication is GPRC-labeled (Guaranteed Peer-Reviewed Content).

Psychanalyse Et Hybridité - Genre, Colonialité, Subjectivations

by Thamy Ayouch

51,68€ + 10% CARD

 Lediscours psychanalytique aux sujets non majoritaires, minorisés et altérisés Le genre, la langue et l’ethnicité sont souvent lescatégories aveugles de certains discours psychanalytiques prétendant sedéployer depuis la position, non située, de l’universel. La psychanalyse n’atoutefois pas pour vocation d’assigner des normes, ni au genres et sexualités,ni aux différences ethniques et culturelles. En posant la question du rapportdu discours psychanalytique aux sujets non majoritaires, minorisés etaltérisés, le propos de cet ouvrage est de penser des instrumentsmétapsychologiques susceptibles de saisir la singularité d’identificationscontemporaines par delà la normativité sociale, culturelle et politique de labinarité des sexes ou de l’universalité culturelle. L’ouvrage propose alors lesmotifs d’une hybridité structurelle, moteur de l’écoute et de la théorisationanalytiques, et d’une hybridation programmatique de la psychanalyse par lesperspectives des études de genre et queeret des études postcoloniales et décoloniales.Psychanalyse et hybridité analyses the motive of hybridity within psychoanalysis, and how itfunctions as the very agent of clinical and theoretical psychoanalysis. Itproposes a programmatic hybridisation of psychoanalysis with the perspectivesof gender and queer studies andpostcolonial and decolonial studies. The purpose is both theoretical andclinical, as the book aims to devise metapsychological tools likely toapprehend the specificity of contemporary gender, sexuality, class and raceidentifications and experiences beyond the social and political normativity ofsex binarity or cultural universalism.

Origins And Ends Of The Mind - Philosophical Essays On Psychoanalysis

40,41€ + 10% CARD

 Psychoanalysis claims that the individual human mind is structured by its childhood relationships with its parents. But the theory of attachment, evolutionary psychology and contemporary philosophy of mind have all recently re-introduced new dimensions of innateness into mental development and pathology. If attachment is an instinct, then what is the psychological status of the child''s relation to the mother? If the mind is in part a product of evolution, then how far down do the inhibitory mechanisms of the mind go? If the mind of the child is shaped by their encounter with a set of prohibitions, how, in the light of contemporary ''cognitive science'' and philosophy of mind, can the child be conceived as ''taking on'' a rule? How is the construction of the mind related to the normative ends of cognitive experience? Today, it is Lacanian psychoanalysis which most vigorously defends psychoanalytic theory and practice from the encroachment of the biological and ''cognitive'' sciences. But a paradigm shift nevertheless appears to be underway, in which the classical psychoanalytic theories about the Oedipus complex, primary and secondary repression, sexual difference and psychosexuality, the role of symbols,etc, are being dismantled and reintegrated into a new synthesis of biological and psychological theories. In this collection of theoretical essays by philosophers and psychoanalysts, encounters are brought about between Freudian and Lacanian psychoanalysis on the one hand, and attachment theory, evolutionary psychology and philosophy of mind on the other.

Non-Oedipal Psychoanalysis? - A Clinical Anthropology Of Hysteria In The Works Of Freud And Lacan

by Philippe Van Haute e Tomas Geyskens

39,75€ + 10% CARD

 The different psychopathologic syndromes show in an exaggerated and caricatural manner the basic structures of human existence. These structures not only characterize psychopathology, but they also determine the highest forms of culture. This is the credo of Freud''s anthropology. This anthropology implies that humans are beings of the in-between. The human being is essentially tied up between pathology and culture, and there is no ‘normal position'' that can be defined in a theoretically convincing manner. The authors of this book call this Freudian anthropology a patho-analysis of existence or a clinical anthropology. This anthropology gives a new meaning to the Nietzschean dictum that the human being is a ‘sick animal''. Freud, and later Lacan, first developed this anthropological insight in relation to hysteria (in its relation to literature). This patho-analytic perspective progressively disappears in Freud''s texts after 1905. This book reveals the crucial moments of that development. In doing so, it becomes clear not only that Freud introduced the Oedipus complex much later than is usually assumed, but also that the theory of the Oedipus complex is irreconcilable with the project of a clinical anthropology. The authors not only examine the philosophical meaning of this thesis in the work of Freud. They also examine its avatars in the texts of Jacques Lacan and show how this project of a patho-analysis of existence inevitably obliges us to formulate a non-oedipal psychoanalytic anthropology.

Psychoanalysis, Monotheism And Morality - The Sigmund Freud Museum Symposia 2009-2011

46,38€ + 10% CARD

 International experts reflecting on psychoanalysis in relation to religion and morality. In this volume renowned experts in psychoanalysis reflect on the relationship between psychoanalysis and religion, in particular presenting various controversial interpretations of the question if and to what extent monotheism semantically and structurally fits psychoanalytic insights. Some essays augment traditional religious critiques of Freudianism with later religio-philosophical theories on, for example, femininity. Others explore the relation between psychopathology and morality from the Freudian premise that psychopathology shows in an excessive way aspects or mechanisms of the human psyche that constitute our subjectivity, and as such also our moral capacities and behaviour.

Deleuze And Desire - Analysis Of The Logic Of Sense

58,30€ + 10% CARD

 A close reading of Deleuze’s major text on desire The engagement of Deleuze with psychoanalysis has led to the development of a remarkable and highly influential theory about human desire. The most systematic account of this theory, crucial for anyone interested in the work of Deleuze and Guattari, can be found in the discussion of the dynamic genesis of sense, a pivotal part of Deleuze’s The Logic of Sense. In Deleuze and Desire Piotrek witkowski picks up the challenge to provide an ad literam commentary of this text. witkowski makes use of a broad range of examples, from psychoanalytic case studies to art, literature, and film, and analyses in an accessible and clear way the impact of the work of psychoanalysts such as Melanie Klein on Deleuze.

Grand Hotel Abyss - Desire, Recognition And The Restoration Of The Subject

by Vladimir Safatle

59,63€ + 10% CARD

 <div>Long-expected translation of the Portuguese academic bestseller Grande Hotel Abismo In the last two decades recognition - arguably one of the most central notions of the dialectical tradition since Hegel - has once again become a crucial philosophical theme. Nevertheless, the new theories of recognition fail to provide room for reflection on transformation processes in politics and morality. </div><div> This book aims to recover the disruptive nature of the dialectical tradition by means of a severe critique of the dominance of an anthropology of the individual identity in contemporary theories of recognition. This critique implies a thorough rethinking of basic concepts such as desire, negativity, will and drive, with Hegel, Lacan and Adorno being our main guides. </div><div> The Marxist philosopher György Lukács said that the Frankfurt School (Horkheimer, Adorno, etc.) left us with nothing but negativity towards the state of the world. Their work failed to open up a concrete possibility of practical engagement in this world. All too eager to describe the impasses of reason, the Frankfurt philosphers remained trapped in a metaphorical Grand Hotel Abyss (Grand Hotel Abgrund). It was as living and being guardian of lettered civilization in a beautiful and melancholy grand hotel, of which the balconies face a gaping abyss. </div><div> </div>But perhaps in this way Lukács gave - and no doubt without realizing it himself - a perfect definition of contemporary philosophy, namely to confront chaos, to peer into what appears to a certain rationality as an abyss and to feel good about it. Touching Hegelian dialectics, critical theory and psychoanalysis, Grand Hotel Abyss gives a new meaning to the notion of negativity as the first essential step for rethinking political and moral engagement.
