Becoming Freud

Becoming Freud is the story of the young Freud Freud up until the age of fifty that incorporates all of Freud s many misgivings about the art of biography Freud invented a psychological treatment that involved the telling and revising of life stories, but he was himself skeptical of the writing of such stories In this biography, Adam Phillips, whom the New Yorker calls Britain s foremost psychoanalytical writer, emphasizes the largely and inevitably undocumented story of Freud s earliest years as the oldest and favored son of Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe and suggests that the psychoanalysis Freud invented was, among many other things, a psychology of the immigrant increasingly, of course, everybody s status in the modern world Psychoanalysis was also Freud s way of coming to terms with the fate of the Jews in Europe in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries So as well as incorporating the writings of Freud and his contemporaries, Becoming Freud also uses the work of historians of the Jews in Europe in this significant period in their lives, a period of unprecedented political freedom and mounting persecution Phillips concludes by speculating what psychoanalysis might have become if Freud had died in 1906, before the emergence of a psychoanalytic movement over which he had to preside.

consistently presented as outdated and wrong minded What I realized in reading this book is that what psychoanalysis really tries to get at is what lies at the basis of our humanity below all the trappings we hide ourselves in so that we can function in our modern civilization The author also makes the point that psychoanalysis in the Freudian sense is by its nature a counter cultural Reading

frustratingly repetitive convoluted, but for the most part this is a fascinating study, not for the beginner, but for the reader with genuine interest in Freud and some experience of his writings.I was interested in this book because of my belief that unawareness of psychology in many cases, tantamount to ignorance of it along with at best bare knowledge or acknowledgement of history accounts largely for the weakness and decline of the U.S Failure to recognize psychology and history so as to govern decision making for shaping action results in madcap activities little different from antics but one characterization of the decade long U.S commotion in Iraq and Afghanistan So I was inter I was interested in this book because of my belief that unawareness of psychology in many cases,
