Description
This program will not be recorded.The women featured in this course were practitioners of psychoanalysis and wrote extensively about their work. These women were selected because of the significance of their thought for psychoanalytic practice. Other psychoanalysts ostracized some of them. The importance of their ideas was neglected, ignored, or forgotten, and others may have derogated their work. We will articulate what is different about the contributions of women to psychoanalytic theory. We will concentrate on influential women, including Karen Horney, Melanie Klein, Anna Freud, and Ana Maria Rizzuto. The goal of this series is to bring out the indisputable contributions of these four women to psychoanalysis and the practice of psychotherapy.
