Topographical Model of Psyche Structural Model of Psyche Main Terms of Theory • Unconscious – Ms. Emmy Case (1895). • Freud proposed the existence of a dynamic unconscious, containing ideas that have been repressed, and which the mind actively struggles to keep at bay. • Freud discovered the return of these ideas in disguised • forms such as slips of the tongue, little mistakes, the words we find ourselves using, and dreams. • We think we are in control of our lives, but in Freud’s view, it’s the unconscious that controls us! Main Terms of Theory • The İd, Ego and Superego For Freud, the mind is in a constant state of conflict with itself. In his most famous account, he divided the mind into three parts: the id, the ego and the superego. The id is the realm of appetites, wants and passions that do not take ‘no’ for an answer. The superego is connected to morality and social norms, built out of identifications with one’s parents, and can be extremely cruel. The ego faces the task of finding a balance between the demands of the id and the superego. That’s why the ego is the seat of the ‘defence mechanisms’ – there are so many dangers to avoid! Defense Mechanisms • Defense Mechanisms: A defense mechanism is an unconscious psychological mechanism that reduces anxiety arising from unacceptable or potentially harmful stimuli. • Repression - queen of defenses • Denial • Projection • Displacement • Rationalization Anna Freud – Defense Mechanisms • Repression, • Regression, • İsolation, • Undoing, • Reaction Formation, • Projection, • Turning Against The Self, • Reversal, • Sublimation • Identification with the aggressor Freud's Psychosexual Stages of Development • Frustration • Fixation • Erogenous Zones 1. The Oral Stage (0-1) 2. The Anal Stage (1-3) 3. The Phallic Stage (3-6) 4. Latency Period (6-12) 5. The Genital Stage (12+) The Oedipus Complex Freud uncovered complex emotional attitudes towards parents and siblings in his patients, leading him to view childhood as a time of intense feelings of love, hatred, envy and fear, culminating in a crisis that he called the ‘Oedipus complex’. The crisis may be resolved through repression, but is never extinguished: it lays down the template for how we relate to others throughout our lives. The Oedipus.

  • The Early History of Psychoanalysis in San Francisco
    Benveniste, D. (2006) The Early History of Psychoanalysis in San Francisco. Psychoanalysis and History. 8(2) July 2006. The Early History of Psychoanalysis in San Francisco Daniel Benveniste, Ph.D. Caracas, Venezuela The early history of psychoanalysis in San Francisco formally begins with the opening of Alfred Kroeber’s psychoanalytic office in 1918 and ends with the death of Siegfried Bernfeld in 1953. Between those years, San Francisco witnessed a small group of Americans and European émigrés coming together and creating the foundation of psychoanalysis in San Francisco. The issues dominating the day were those of lay analysis, psychoanalytic training models and World War II. Within this small psychoanalytic community, there were a number of extremely creative analysts who, along with the rest, participated in some rare moments in which a creative and ecumenical spirit prevailed and others in which divisiveness limited them. Without a historical context, those of us in the depth psychologies tend to become arrogant and assert the ahistorical and timeless truth of our views. We fall victim to "the narcissism of minor differences" and project our dreaded other onto the various others around us whether they be pop psychology innovators, old guard upholders of the dogma, or just our theoretical cousins. But psychoanalysis is not a natural science. It is a historical science. Nathan Adler used to say, "Every generation must rediscover psychoanalysis for itself." And I would add that we must contextualize our discoveries and re-discoveries in the social, historical and economic moment in which we are situated. There are many reasons for recalling the early history of the depth psychologies in San Francisco.

  • A Brief History of the British Psychoanalytical Society
    A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE BRITISH PSYCHOANALYTICAL SOCIETY Ken Robinson When Ernest Jones set about establishing psychoanalysis in Britain, two intertwining tasks faced him: establishing the reputation of psychoanalysis as a respectable pursuit and defining an identity for it as a discipline that was distinct from but related to cognate disciplines. This latter concern with identity would remain central to the development of the British Society for decades to come, though its inflection would shift as the Society sought first to mark out British psychoanalysis as having its own character within the International Psychoanalytical Association, and then to find a way of holding together warring identities within the Society. Establishing Psychoanalysis: The London Society Ernest Jones’ diary for 1913 contains the simple entry for October 30: “Ψα meeting. Psycho-med. dinner” (Archives of the British Psychoanalytical Society, hereafter Archives). This was the first meeting of the London Psychoanalytical Society. In early August Jones had returned to London from ignominious exile in Canada after damaging accusations of inappropriate sexual conduct in relation to children. Having spent time in London and Europe the previous year, he now returned permanently, via Budapest where from June he had received analysis from Ferenczi. Once in London he wasted no time in beginning practice as a psychoanalyst, seeing his first patient on the 14th August (Diary 1913, Archives), though he would soon take a brief break to participate in what would turn out to be a troublesome Munich Congress in September (for Jones’s biography generally, see Maddox [2006]). Jones came back to a London that showed a growing interest in unconscious phenomena and abnormal psychology.

  • A Literatura Na Construção Da Linguagem Do Analista1
    JORNAL de PSICANÁLISE 51(95), 259-272. 2018 A literatura na construção da linguagem do analista1 Maria Luiza Salomão,2 São Paulo Resumo: Ao refletir sobre a construção da linguagem analítica, tomo o conceito de Ferro (2008), que vê nos relatos do paciente uma narrativa: enfatiza a escuta do como o paciente narra, e não o conteúdo propriamente dito (sintomas). Reflito sobre como Freud, em seus historiais clínicos, concede-se liberdade para criar uma narrativa sobre seus pacientes, criando conceitos iluminadores da prática psicanalítica. Dou como exemplo o conceito de cena primária, presente em seu trabalho com o paciente russo Sergei Pankejeff (Freud, 1918/2010), o Homem dos Lobos, que rejeita ter tido a experiência descrita por Freud, dizendo ser uma invenção do pai da psicanálise. Freud, ao comunicar suas descobertas, constrói, audaz, uma linguagem e um léxico, que permite ao leitor um desdobramento fértil de ideias e de percepções. Ao transmitir sua experiência analítica, não cuida de seguir literalmente o relato do paciente, mas cria uma narrativa que permite ir além do vivido na dupla, construindo conceitos com base em sua potência investigativa e imaginativa. Considero, neste texto, a leitura de textos psicanalíticos como experiências emocionais, semelhantes às leituras que faço de poesias e de prosas literárias. Reflito brevemente sobre as vicissitudes que os analistas enfrentam na transmissão de suas experiências clínicas nos encontros entre pares; assim como na interferência da personalidade do analista na experiência e no relato da experiência da dupla analítica. Palavras-chave: narrativa psicanalítica, construção da linguagem psicanalítica, leituras psicanalíticas Leio a literatura psicanalítica como leio poesia e escrita literária.

Indeed, the goal of psychoanalysis is to make the unconscious Psychoanalytic theory is a method of investigating and treating personality disorders and is used in psychotherapy. Included in this theory is the idea that things that happen to people during childhood can contribute to the way they later function as adults conscious. Keywords : Id, Ego, Superego, Subconscious mind 1. Introduction Freud is best known for his theories of the unconscious mind, especially involving the mechanism of repression; his redefinition of sexual desire as mobile and directed towards a wide variety of objects; and his therapeutic technique, especially his understanding of transference in the therapeutic relationship and Freud experimented with hypnotism with his most hysteric and neurotic patients, but he eventually gave up the practice. One theory is that he did so because he was not very good at it. He switched to putting his patients on a couch and encouraging them to say whatever came into their minds, a practice termed free association.

  • Pre-Phobic Anxiety *
    Pre-phobic Anxiety * “My dear Professor, I am sending you a little more about Hans-but this time, I am sorry to say, material for a case history.”1The boy woke up one morning in tears; asked why he was crying, he said to his mother: “When I was asleep I thought you were gone and I had no Mummy to coax with” [The child’s word for caress. It is therefore,] “An anxiety dream.”2 In 1909 the publication of the case-history “caused a great stir and even greater indignation”. Would the findings of a psychoanalysis of a suffering child meet with the same agitations and scorn as Freud’s case history of the analysis and recovery of Little Hans? Or, can we learn from it and find hope? It’s my hope that this paper, rather than giving a chronological account, can remind us of the mental activities driving the anxious and fearful child before calling up the intervention of his phobic object. Freud writes: We must regard [this dream] as a genuine punishment and repression dream and, moreover, as a dream which failed in its function, since the child woke from his sleep in a state of anxiety. We can easily reconstruct what actually occurred in the unconscious3. Thanks to Freud’s monumental gift we remember that “The Interpretation of dreams is the royal road to a knowledge of the unconscious activities of the mind”.4 As the most common victims of anxiety dreams are children5 how are we to understand Hans’s distress given that Freud asserts “Children’s dreams prove beyond a doubt that a wish that has not been dealt with during the day can act as dream
