The Cambridge Companion to Freud (Cambridge Companions to Philosophy)

Does Freud still have something to teach us? The premise of this volume is that he most certainly does. Approaching Freud from not only the philosophical but also historical, psychoanalytical, anthropological, and sociological perspectives, the contributors show us how Freud gave us a new and powerful way to think about human thought and action. They consider the context of Freud's thought and the structure of his arguments to reveal how he made sense of ranges of experience generally neglected or misunderstood. All the central topics of Freud's work from sexuality and neurosis to morality, art, and culture are covered. -- Back cover 1......Page 1 2......Page 8 3......Page 25 4......Page 44 5......Page 86 6......Page 136 7......Page 161 8......Page 175 9......Page 209 10......Page 224 11......Page 249 12......Page 267 13......Page 287 14......Page 309 15......Page 339 16......Page 343
