The Cornerstones of Psychoanalysis: Volume 2: Sigmund Freud and Sandor Ferenczi

This volume considers Freud's psychoanalytic work alongside social and medical practices in the late 19th century, exploring the role of women and femininity in relation to Freud's self-analysis. Drawing on his work with Emma Eckstein, as well as comparing and contrasting it with the theory and practice of Sandor Ferenczi, a prominent Hungarian psychoanalyst known for his belief in the truthfulness of clients reporting sexual abuse in childhood, the book provides an original and important perspective for the field.
