Theories and Practices of Psychoanalysis in Central Europe: Narrative Assemblages of Self Analysis, Life Writing, and Fiction

Author(s) : Agnieszka Sobolewska

Reviews and Endorsements

This book offers an eloquent and rigorous challenge to the narrative borders often surrounding the early history of psychoanalysis. Sobolewska’s vision is as transgressive as Freud would have wished for his unconscious. Deccentering the primacy of Vienna, this work insists on the inclusion of various urban and creative centers elsewhere in Central Europe. But it extends the frame further, to privilege the formative roles of visual and literary productions, and the intersectional identities of many of its contributors. This is a truly innovative study, with ramifications for numerous disciplines.
