Freud, psychoanalysis, and symbolism
by Agnes Petocz
- 1 Want to read
"Freud, Psychoanalysis and Symbolism offers an innovative general theory of symbolism, derived from Freud's psychoanalytic theory and relocated within mainstream scientific psychology. Agnes Petocz argues that the treatment of symbolism must begin with the identification and clarification of a set of logical constraints and psychological requirements which any general theory of symbolism must respect, and that these requirements have been neglected by existing accounts across a number of disciplines. Her newly proposed 'Freudian Broad' theory of symbolism, by contrast, does meet these requirements, but only after it has been rehabilitated within a revised psychoanalytic context."--Jacket.

First Sentence
"'There is something very curious in semantics', says Levi-Strauss (1978), 'that the word "meaning" is, probably, in the whole language, the word the meaning of which is the most difficult to define' (p. 12)."
