Informationen zum Autor Robert Langs, M.D. is the author of forty-seven books written on the basis of his innovative approach to the human mind and to psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, and the human condition. His focus on the unconscious experience of and adaptations to reality and its death-related traumas places him in a unique position to to retell the interrelated stories of Freud's early-life traumas and the psychoanalysis he created with a freshness that brings new insights and wisdom to both biographical investigations and the broad field of dynamic psychology. Klappentext Freud on a Precipice is an exploration of eight likely early-life traumas experienced by Sigmund Freud and an effort to show how their unconscious processing adversely affected the psychoanalytic theory he forged beginning in the late 1890's. Using a new method to decode key narratives in Freud's opus, Langs makes a compelling argument for the probability that Freud was never sure of the identity of his biological father. The book also offers a fresh study of paradigms, paradigm shifts, and archetypes. Inhaltsverzeichnis Chapter 1. Is Freud to be Trusted? Chapter 2. Paradigms and Archetypes Chapter 3.
