Crumb's World - Robert Storr, R. Crumb

R. Crumb’s obsessions—from sex to the Bible, music, politics, and the vicissitudes and obscenities of daily life—are chronicled in this comprehensive book of work by the illustrious American comic artist.Instrumental in the formation of the underground comics scene in San Francisco during the 1960s and 1970s, Crumb has ruptured and expanded the boundaries of the graphic arts, redefining comics and cartoons as countercultural art forms. Presenting a slice of Crumb’s unique universe, this book features a wide array of printed matter culled from the artist’s five-decade career—tear sheets of drawings and comics taken directly from the publications where the works first appeared, comic book covers, broadsides from the 1960s and 1970s, and tabloids from Haight-Ashbury, Oakland, the Lower East Side, and other counterculture enclaves, as well as exhibition ephemera. Complementing this volume are historical works from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries that have inspired Crumb and pages from his rarely seen sketchbooks from the 1970s and 1980s that reveal his exemplary skill as a draftsman.

The Heretics - Will Storr

Why do obviously intelligent people believe things in spite of the evidence against them? Will Storr has travelled across the world to meet an extraordinary cast of modern heretics in order to answer this question. He goes on a tour of Holocaust sites with David Irving and a band of neo-Nazis, experiences his own murder during ''past-life regression'' hypnosis, takes part in a mass homeopathic overdose, and investigates a new disease affecting tens of thousands of people - a disease that doesn''t actually exist. Using a unique mix of personal memoir, investigative journalism and the latest research from neuroscience and experimental psychology, Storr reveals why the facts just won''t convince some people, and how the neurological ''hero-maker'' inside all of us can so easily lead to self-deception and science-denial. The Heretics will change the way you think about thinking.

The Interpretation of Dreams - Sigmund Freud

Part of the bestselling Capstone Classics Series edited by Tom Butler-Bowdon, this collectible, hard-back edition of The Interpretation of Dreams provides an accessible and insightful edition of this important work of psychology Sigmund Freud's The Interpretation of Dreams introduced his ground-breaking theory of the unconscious and explored how interpreting dreams can reveal the true nature of humanity. Regarded as Freud's most significant work, this classic text helped establish the discipline of psychology and is the foundational work in the field of psychoanalysis. Highly readable and engaging, the book both provides a semi-autobiographical look into Freud’s personal life – his holidays in the Alps, spending time with his children, interacting with friends and colleagues – and delves into descriptions and analyses of the dreams themselves. Freud begins with a review of literature on dreams written by a broad range of ancient and contemporary figures – concluding that science has learned little of the nature of dreams in the past several thousand years. Although the prevailing view was that dreams were merely responses to ‘sensory excitation,’ Freud felt that the multifaceted dimensions of dreams could not be attributed solely to physical causes.

Foucault Versus Freud

In Foucault Versus Freud, Jerome C. Wakefield offers a novel analysis of one of the great intellectual clashes of our times, the attack on Sigmund Freud''s influential sexual theories by the eminent French philosopher and historian of ideas Michel Foucault.Starting from Foucault''s question, "What makes the psychoanalytic theory of incest acceptable to the bourgeois family?", and drawing on Foucault''s relatively unexplored published lectures as well as his celebrated History of Sexuality, Vol. 1, Wakefield evaluates Foucault''s argument that there is a continuity between the two-century medical anti-masturbation crusade and Freud''s theory, providing the reader with an accessible introduction to Foucault''s conceptual innovations including power/knowledge, the deployment of sexuality, and the use of surveillance and confession as tactics in medicalizing sexuality and reshaping family life.Rather than allowing the argument to stay at the evidentially uncertain level one often finds in Foucault''s writings, Wakefield undertakes close readings of both Freud''s "seduction-theory" texts and later Oedipal-period texts to test whether Foucault''s provocative arguments find support or disconfirmation. Despite identifying weaknesses in Foucault''s position, Wakefield argues that a careful look at Freud''s sexual theories through Foucault''s theoretical lens changes forever the way one sees Freud''s theory—and has the potential to help psychoanalysis move forward ...

Radical Freud - Thomas Olver

Radical Freud reveals a radical dimension to Sigmund Freud''s sexual theory that has previously been neglected.Thomas Olver argues that Freud''s radical heritage has been transformed into an orthodox school with an internal stasis that is unassailable from within but increasingly challenged from without as irrelevant. Olver offers a return to the radical elements of Freud''s work, first by reviewing the ways in which Freud''s pioneering sexual theory has been vulgarised since his death, and by recentring his texts. The bisexuality thesis is then reconstructed, based on a close reading of key texts, and contrasted with the better-known Oedipus theory. Olver then explores the philosophical and clinical consequences of this parallel line of sexual theory.Radical Freud will be of great interest to psychoanalysts as well as to academics and scholars of psychoanalytic studies, gender and queer studies, sociology, anthropology, history and philosophy.

Freud At Work - Sebastian Smee, Lucian Freud

Lucian Freud is not only the most celebrated artist working in England, but one of the most private. He has frequently stated his reluctance to be photographed and he has almost never agreed to be interviewed. Following the publication of the last ten years of his work by Jonathan Cape in the autumn of 2005, the painter has agreed to talk to Sebastian Smee, a writer on art whom he greatly respects, in a series of conversations rather than formal interviews. He wants to talk about painting itself, the demands of his own work and the painters he admires. Two photographers have had access to Freud''s studio. The late Bruce Bernard was a friend for many years and the subject of two of Freud''s paintings. Bernard was an authority on photography, a great picture editor, and also a very fine photographer. He made a number of studies of Freud at work. Over the last five years in particular, Freud''s assistant, the painter David Dawson, has been photographing the artist constantly. The results reveal various stages of works in progress, including paintings of Dawson himself, and the intensity of the activity in this very secret domain. The only precedent to such ...

Saving Freud - Andrew Nagorski

A dramatic true story about Sigmund FreudÂ’s last-minute escape to London following the German annexation of Austria and the group of friends who made it possible.In March 1938, German soldiers crossed the border into Austria and Hitler absorbed the country into the Third Reich. Anticipating these events, many Jews had fled Austria, but the most famous Austrian Jew remained in Vienna, where he had lived since early childhood. Sigmund Freud was eighty-one years old, ill with cancer, and still unconvinced that his life was in danger. But several prominent people close to Freud thought otherwise, and they began a coordinated effort to persuade Freud to leave his beloved Vienna and emigrate to England. The group included a Welsh physician, NapoleonÂ’s great-grandniece, an American ambassador, FreudÂ’s devoted youngest daughter Anna and his personal doctor. Saving Freud is the story of how this remarkable collection of people finally succeeded in coaxing Freud, a man who seemingly knew the human mind better than anyone else, to emerge from his deep state of denial about the looming catastrophe, allowing them to extricate him and his family from Austria so that they could settle in London.

The Penguin Freud Reader - Sigmund Freud

Here are the essential ideas of psychoanalytic theory, including Freud''s explanations of such concepts as the Id, Ego and Super-Ego, the Death Instinct and Pleasure Principle, along with classic case studies like that of the Wolf Man. Adam Phillips''s marvellous selection provides an ideal overview of Freud''s thought in all its extraordinary ambition and variety. Psychoanalysis may be known as the ''talking cure'', yet it is also and profoundly, a way of reading. Here we can see Freud''s writings as readings and listenings, deciphering the secrets of the mind, finding words for desires that have never found expression. Much more than this, however, The Penguin Freud Reader presents a compelling reading of life as we experience it today, and a way in to the work of one of the most haunting writers of the modern age.

Through Clouds of Smoke: Freud's Final Days - Suzanne Leclair

The aging Sigmund Freud reflects upon the torments of age, the mouth cancer he suffers due to his cigar addiction, and the rise of Nazism.In 1923, Sigmund Freud, 67 years old and an inveterate cigar smoker, discovers that he has mouth cancer, a truth long hidden from him by doctors. Despite his diagnosis, Freud survived 15 more years, convinced the cigars that were slowly destroying him increased his productivity and gave him control over himself. At the same time, a different sort of cancer was consuming Europe. In 1933, Adolf Hitler rose to power in Germany, annexing Freud''s home country of Austria five years later. His books burning upon fascist pyres and his peers concerned for his life, Freud had no choice but to leave Vienna for London, his final home. With accuracy and sobriety, Suzanne Leclair and William Roy reveal a raw and nuanced portrait of the father of psychoanalysis in his last days. Here, the controversial figure is shown in all his contradictions and weakness, a reflection of our own fears and trials in facing age and death.

Freud's Women - John Forrester, Lisa Appignanesi

A groundbreaking book which explores the impact of women on the development of Freud''s ideas.No modern writer has affected our views on women as powerfully as Sigmund Freud. And none has been so virulently attacked for both his theories of femininity and for his alleged elevation of personal prejudice to universal pronouncement.FREUD''S WOMEN examines that bold collaboration with his female patients which made psychoanalysis as much their creation as the young Viennese doctor''s. It explores Freud''s family life, his relations with daughter Anna, his ''Antigone'', and his friendships with his followers. From the writer and turn of the century ''femme fatale'', Lou Andreas Salome, to the socialist feminist, Helene Deutsch, early theorist of femininity, to Princesse Marie Bonaparte, who moved from couch to royal court with amazing facility and became head of the French psychoanalytic movement, Freud''s women friends and pupils were extraordinary.

Krysí muž a Vlčí muž - Sigmund Freud

Významnou součástí Freudovy práce, s jejíž pomocí si ujasňoval své základní teorie, byly popisy jeho klinických případů – kazuistiky jeho pacientů. Ty představují fascinující možnost podívat se na to, jak probíhala Freudova každodenní sezení. V předkládaném výboru představujeme kazuistiky Krysího muže a Vlčího muže. Krysí muž shrnuje jeden z prvních popisů celé psychoanalytické léčby, klinické detaily i vnitřní svět pacienta. Ilustruje konflikt mezi touhou po lásce otce a zápasem s ním, mezi láskou a nenávistí a přemístění nenávistných pocitů do nutkavých příznaků. Naproti tomu Vlčí muž osvětluje záhadu psychosexuality, obsahující fantazie kastrace, primární scény a svedení. Freud v této kazuistice předkládá myšlenku zpětného přepracování traumatické zkušenosti, dodatečného proměňování vzpomínek a fantazií. Kazuistika Krysího muže je doplněna o rozsáhlé Freudovy poznámky, které si dělal bezprostředně po každém sezení. Ty se našly v jeho pozůstalosti a nebyly dosud česky publikovány. Jsou ale skvělým dokladem toho, jak Freud klinicky pozoroval a přemýšlel. Při četbě Freudových případových studií se ukazuje nejen to, že Freud byl schopen mistrovsky analyzovat lidské nitro a promluvit o vytěsněných stránkách lidské duše, ale i to, že jeho výpovědi mají vysokou literární úroveň.Sigmund Freud (1856–1939), vídeňský neurolog a psychoterapeut, zakladatel psychoanalýzy.

Přednášky k úvodu do psychoanalýzy - Sigmund Freud

Freud nikdy nenapsal skutečnou učebnici psychoanalýzy. A tak se tomuto účelu nejvíc blíží jeho přednášky. Jejich první řadu přednesl mezi lety 1915 a 1917 v posluchárně Vídeňské psychiatrické kliniky tak, aby je pochopili i posluchači bez hlubšího psychiatrického vzdělání. Jeho způsob podání je živý a projevuje se v něm Freudova schopnost didaktického myšlení. Stavba přednášek vychází z toho, co je každému bezprostředně známo z vlastních prožitků. Tématem jsou tři klasické oblasti psychoanalytického zkoumání: chybné úkony, sny a neurotické symptomy. Přednášky jsou skvělým přehledem poznatků tzv. překladatelského období psychoanalýzy. Freud na tento projekt navázal v Nové řadě přednášek k úvodu do psychoanalýzy z roku 1933, ačkoli tato řada už nikdy před posluchači přednesena nebyla. Freud zde své poznatky reviduje a doplňuje a představuje mimo jiné strukturální model psychiky.Jedná se o nejpřekládanější Freudovo dílo, které dodnes patří k povinným textům všech výukových psychoanalytických institutů – o ideální úvod k poznání psychoanalýzy, jak jej může podat jen jeho tvůrce sám.Sigmund Freud (1856–1939), vídeňský neurolog a psychoterapeut, zakladatel psychoanalýzy.

An artist internationally recognized for his encaustic paintings of flags, targets and maps, JohnsÂ’ "Neo-Dada" works helped to formalize a shift in postwar American art, moving away from Abstract Expressionism and toward Pop art. StorrÂ’s essays and articles provide a unique look at JohnsÂ’ practice and its continuing relevance, encapsulating StorrÂ’s process of close examination of and prolonged thinking about JohnsÂ’ art.

This little-known and ultimately tragic true story of two divorces, three deaths, and a ménage à quatre, as well as the questionable motives behind Freud’s involvement in it, is the subject of a groundbreaking collaboration between artist and animator Lionel Richerand and the prizewinning philosopher, biographer, and novelist Pierre Péju.

The Interpretation of Dreams - Sigmund Freud

Translated by A.A. Brill With an Introduction by Stephen Wilson.Sigmund Freud''s audacious masterpiece, The Interpretation of Dreams, has never ceased to stimulate controversy since its publication in 1900.Freud is acknowledged as the founder of psychoanalysis, the key to unlocking the human mind, a task which has become essential to man''s survival in the twentieth century, as science and technology have rushed ahead of our ability to cope with their consequences.Freud saw that man is at war with himself and often unable to tolerate too much reality. He propounded the theory that dreams are the contraband representations of the beast within man, smuggled into awareness during sleep. In Freudian interpretation, the analysis of dreams is the key to unlocking the secrets of the unconscious mind.

In these papers Freud develops his now famous theories about the sexuality of childhood and the transgressive nature of human desire.In the famous case study of the eighteen-year-old ''Dora'', we see Freud at work, both putting into practice and testing his sexual theories that were to change the modern world.

Kniha - autor Jean-Yves Tadié, 224 stran, česky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Kniha Jeana-Yvese Tadiého je určitým inventářem myšlenek Marcela Prousta a Sigmunda Freuda. Autor nachází paralely v jejich názorech na spánek, sny, paměť, dětství, homosexualitu, lásku, žárlivost, smutek i smrt. Jean-Yves Tadié, přední odborník na dílo Marcela Prousta a pozorný čtenář Sigmunda Freuda, porovnává ve svém textu inteligence dvou výjimečných mužů a jejich postoje k okolnímu světu. Freud i Proust byli, každý svým vlastním způsobem, průzkumníky, kteří se snažili proniknout hlouběji do lidské psychiky. Jeden prostřednictvím nevědomí a psychoanalýzy, druhý v souvislostech s pamětí, z níž se vynořují obrazy koloběhu života, jež nám pomáhají pochopit sama sebe i situace, v nichž se ocitáme. Ačkoli současníci, Freud a Proust se nikdy nesetkali, nestudovali vzájemně svou práci, ale zdá se, že sledovali paralelní cesty ve výzkumu hloubek a jemností lidské mysli. Akademik,...

Výklad snů - Sigmund Freud

Výklad snů (v německém originále Die Traumdeutung) je kniha zakladatele psychoanalýzy Sigmunda Freuda. Výklad snů patří k nejznámějším Freudovým knihám. Poprvé vyšla roku 1899 v nakladatelství Franz Deuticke. Nakladatel nicméně knihu plánoval na rok 1900, a proto je v prvním vydání uvedeno právě toto vročení. S distribucí však začal již na konci roku 1899. Kniha je považována za klíčový Freudův spis, neboť kromě popisu techniky výkladu snu obsahuje i definici pojmů vědomí a nevědomí (v pozdějších vydáních poté ještě předvědomí) a také tzv. Oidipovského komplexu. Freud v knize analyzuje především své vlastní sny a Výklad snů je tak jedním z klíčových informačních zdrojů Freudových životopisců, jiné možné zdroje Freud systematicky ničil.

Já a obranné mechanismy - Anna Freud

Kniha Já a obranné mechanismy patří ke klasickým, základním psychoanalytickým textům. Anna Freud, dcera Sigmunda Freuda, zde zřetelně ukazuje, že psychoanalýza se nezabývá výhradně lidským nevědomím. Dokládá, že ve skutečnosti bylo vždy předmětem zájmu psychoanalýzy Já a jeho poruchy – přičemž zabývání se nevědomím sloužilo obnově Já a jeho funkcí. Autorka se v této knize věnuje specifickému problému – prostředkům, kterými se Já brání nelibým stavům a úzkosti a pokouší se zvládat impulzivní jednání, afekty a pudové nároky.Anna Freud (1895–1982) byla rakousko-uhersko-britská psychoanalytička židovského původu, dcera zakladatele psychoanalýzy Sigmunda Freuda. Je zakladatelkou egopsychologie a dětské psychoanalýzy. Jejím nejvýznamnějším konceptem jsou obranné mechanismy Ega a systém paralelních vývojových linií. Věnovala se též problému puberty a adolescence. Patří do stovky nejcitovanějších psychologů 20. století.

Nová řada přednášek k úvodu do psychoanalýzy - Sigmund Freud

Mezi Freudovy nejslavnější knihy patří Přednášky k úvodu do psychoanalýzy, jejichž první řadu přednesl mezi lety 1915 a 1917 v posluchárně Vídeňské psychiatrické kliniky. Jeho cílem byla srozumitelnost při výkladu základních psychoanalytických pojmů a jevů. Freud na tento projekt navázal v Nové řadě přednášek k úvodu do psychoanalýzy z roku 1933, ačkoli tato řada už nikdy před posluchači přednesena nebyla. Freud zde své poznatky (např. nauku o snech či téma ženskosti) reviduje a doplňuje a představuje mimo jiné strukturální model psychiky (id, ego, superego). Tím završuje své učení.Freudovy přednášky dodnes patří k základním psychoanalytickým textům z pera samotného tvůrce tohoto směru.

A Clockwork Orange - Anthony Burgess

'It is a horrorshow story ...' Fifteen-year-old Alex likes lashings of ultraviolence. He and his gang of friends rob, kill and rape their way through a nightmarish future, until the State puts a stop to his riotous excesses. But what will his re-education mean?

Civilization and Its Discontents - Sigmund Freud

In what remains one of his most seminal papers, Freud considers the incompatibility of civilisation and individual happiness, and the tensions between the claims of society and the individual. We all know that living in civilised groups means sacrificing a degree of personal interest, but couldn't you argue that it in fact creates the conditions for our happiness? Freud explores the arguments and counter-arguments surrounding this proposition, focusing on what he perceives to be one of society's greatest dangers; 'civilised' sexual morality. After all, doesn't repression of sexuality deeply affect people and compromise their chances of happiness?
