Century Feminism: a Jungian Exploration of the Feminine Self
20th Century Feminism: A Jungian Exploration of The Feminine Self by Christopher Alan Snellgrove A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama August 4, 2012 Keywords: Carl Jung, Virginia Woolf, Toni Morrison, Margaret Atwood, Archetypes Copyright 2012 by Christopher Alan Snellgrove Approved by Jonathan Bolton, Chair, Associate Professor of English Dan Latimer, Professor Emeritus of English Susana Morris, Assistant Professor of English Abstract The following work uses the theories and methods provided by Carl Jung as a way of analyzing works by three women authors: Virginia Woolf’s Orlando, Toni Morrison’s Beloved, and Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale. The primary Jungian notion featured is that of self-actualization—the process by which a person has achieved a sense of wholeness uniting their body and mind to the greater world. Specifically, I examine how the protagonists and antagonists of these texts either complete their Jungian journey towards actualized wholeness. In order to do this, I focus greatly on Jung’s notion of archetypes, and how they either help or hinder the journey that these women are on. A large part of the analysis centers on how actualization might be defined in feminine terms, by women living in a world of patriarchal control. As such, this work continues the endeavors of other Post-Jungians to “rescue” Jung from his own patriarchal leanings, using his otherwise egalitarian theories as a way of critiquing patriarchy and envisioning sexual equality. Jung, then, becomes an interesting bridge between first, second, and third-wave feminism, as well as a bridge between modernism and post-modernism. -

FEMINIST PSYCHOLOGY of WOMEN When I Dare to Be Powerful-To Use My Strength in the Service of My Vision, Then It Becomes Less Important Whether I Am Unafraid
FEMINIST PSYCHOLOGY OF WOMEN When I dare to be powerful-to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less important whether I am unafraid. Audre Lorde KALAMAZOO COLLEGE SPRING, 2012 KARYN BOATWRIGHT, PH. D. PROFESSOR'S OFFICE: 403G OLDS UPTON HALL OFFICE HOURS: TUESDAY 1:30-3:30 P.M. (ADDITIONAL MEETING TIMES UPON REQUEST) TEACHING ASSISTANTS: LAUREN ROSENTHAL & KATHERINE CURLEY CLASS MEETING TIME AND LOCATION: ROOM 408 OLDS UPTON, 2:40-4:00 P.M. MWF COURSE DESCRIPTION: You are not expected to be a feminist or to espouse a feminist political perspective and my goal will not be to “convert” you to feminism. However, it is difficult to possess a solid grasp of the field of psychology without understanding the feminists’ responses to various core issues and empirical research. This course is designed for students who wish to explore issues related to women's lives and experiences through analyzing research studies through active and respectful discourse. Why is this important? Since nearly the beginning of psychology as a discipline, feminist psychologists (e.g., Karen Horney, Jean Baker Miller) have intensely scrutinized and criticized the field for its androcentric focus. In the last few decades, feminist psychologists have tried to correct these biases by placing women at the center of inquiry, both as researchers and objects of study. As a result, psychology is undergoing transformation to its very core because of the positive influence of feminist questions, probing, analyses, and feminist empirical research. I happen to believe in the importance of studying the historical developments in various psychological disciplines. -
Karen Horney Vs. Sigmund Freud
Karen Horney vs. Sigmund Freud: Breaking Barriers in Psychoanalysis for Women as a Woman Cate Boyette Individual Performance Senior Division Process Paper: 492 words Boyette 1 Last summer, I was a volunteer at a coding camp for gifted, disadvantaged elementary school girls. At the camp, we used a book titled Women in Science-- 50 Fearless Pioneers Who Changed the World. After doing National History Day for two years, I knew I wanted to do it again, and I was on the lookout for topics to fit the theme of Breaking Barriers in History. After I read the excerpt on Karen Horney, I immediately knew I wanted to tell her story. The way she challenged Freudian beliefs for having both misogynistic and scientific flaws during a time when promoting such ideas could ruin one’s reputation as a psychoanalyst clearly broke barriers. She also paved the way for women who wanted to pursue psychoanalysis and specialize in adult therapy. Because my topic this year was more academic in nature, my research process differed from previous years. I immediately noticed that primary sources were easier to find, especially medical articles, journals from the time, and the works of Horney and other psychoanalysts. My most useful primary sources were the two books by Horney. I used Feminine Psychology to explain her counter-argument to Freud´s popular theory on the castration complex in women and I used Neurosis and Human Growth to discuss her anti-Freudian beliefs. What was difficult to find were high-quality secondary sources. Since most of my primary sources focused on particular aspects of Horney's life, I tried looking for a biography. -
Abstracts 2021
IAJS/ Duquesne University Conference, March 18-21, 2021 Authors and Abstracts Apocalypse Imminent: A depth psychological analysis of human responses to fear of catastrophe and extinction. J. Alvin and E. Hanley In the dire situation of the world today, humans are striving to cope with impending catastrophes and end of life on Earth. Emergency food buckets with a shelf life of 25 years are now sold in quantities that provide a year of lasting sustenance for an individual. Efforts to colonize Mars are underway and its pop-culture representations are based on key narratives of American heritage: ingenuity/technology, the great frontier/utopia, and democracy/capitalism. The configuration of apocalyptic social phenomena, arranged in a cultural and astrological gestalt, may be reminiscent of other points in human history where the threat of catastrophe rendered similar archetypal expression. As psychologists, we must ask: what precisely is being achieved by the development and sale of stockpiled food and plans to colonize other planets? What are we turning toward and away from? What kind of life are we buying into? Key concepts explored in the research of these topics include technology, climate change, food sustainability, cultural complex, and more. To be explored in a discussion panel are the archetypal root and metaphor of these social phenomena and the implications these endeavors have for humanity entering the next phase of existence. It is our intention to present papers on the above topics and, with Dr. Romanyshyn as a respondent, facilitate an in-depth and meaningful discussion. 1 Wise emergency survival food storage Jonathan Alvin The purpose of this philosophical hermeneutic study will be to understand the Wise Emergency Survival Food Storage (WESFS) as an artifact that reflects and reproduces its cultural matrix (Cushman, 1996). -

Personal Politics: the Rise of Personality Traits in The
PERSONAL POLITICS: THE RISE OF PERSONALITY TRAITS IN THE CENTURY OF EUGENICS AND PSYCHOANALYSIS IAN J. DAVIDSON A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN PSYCHOLOGY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO AUGUST 2020 © IAN J. DAVIDSON, 2020 ii Abstract This dissertation documents personality psychology’s development alongside psychoanalysis and eugenics, offering a disciplinary and cultural history of personality across the twentieth century. Using the psychological concepts of neurosis and introversion as an organizational framework, personality’s history is portrayed as one of “success:” a succession of hereditarianism and its politics of normativity; a successful demarcation of the science of personality from competing forms of expertise; and a successful cleansing of personality psychology’s interchanges with unethical researchers and research. Chapter 1 provides background for the dissertation, especially focusing on turn-of-the- century developments in the nascent fields of American psychology and the importation of psychoanalytic ideas. It ends with a look at Francis Galton’s eugenicist and statistical contributions that carved a key path for psychological testers to discipline psychoanalytic concepts. Part I details the rise of personality testing in the USA during the interwar years, while also considering the many sexual and gender norms at play. Chapter 2 tracks the varied places in the 1920s that personality tests were developed: from wartime military camps to university laboratories to the offices of corporate advertisers. Chapter 3 takes stock of popular psychoanalytic notions of personality alongside the further psychometric development of personality testing. These developments occurred at a time when American eugenicists— including psychologists—were transitioning to a “positive” form that emphasized marriage and mothering. -
Approaches to Feminist Therapy: a Case Study Illustration Selvira Draganović
Epiphany: Vol. 4, No. 1, 2011 ISSN 1840-3719 Approaches to Feminist Therapy: A Case Study Illustration Selvira Draganović Abstract This paper deals with the emergence and development of feminism in general and feminist psychology with special emphasis on feminist’s reaction to traditional assumptions in Freudian psychology and male dominated theory and research. Feminist movement simply started as a women’s activism which later claimed political identity and finally ended as women’s liberation movement. Feminists simply advocate gender equality. Emergence of feminist psychology movement and appearance of significant female figures in psychology is further explained along with their contribution to the theory, personality and specific developmental issues along with its input to the therapy and counseling field. The influence of four feminist philosophical approaches namely, liberal feminism, cultural feminism, radical feminism and social feminism are also shortly discussed alongside with their practical implications. Above and beyond, feminist contribution to the therapy field reflected in offering specific therapy goals are also discussed. Self esteem as a core issue and one of feminist therapy goals is finally discussed and presented through a specific case study illustration. Feminist therapy is important therapy approach with significant therapy goals contribution in relation to women’s mental health issues. Consideration of sex, gender, cultural diversity, etiology, diagnosis and treatment is feminist request for successful therapy because fixing woman for functioning in a dysfunctional society seems not enough.

Gender, Power and Organisation: a Psychological Perspective
Gender, Power and Organisation Women in western society have entered the workplace in increasing numbers only since the 1950s, and this entry has been rapid. Gender, Power and Organisation is an examination of the psychological impact of the work setting on professional women, which has become a major site of gender politics over the last twenty years. This book, however, is not primarily about the political and social challenge of inequality of numbers, but about the psychological consequences of this gender imbalance for senior and middle ranking women in management and the professions. Paula Nicolson re-examines the ways that patriarchal structures resist women’s progress, and how male success has psychological implications for women’s sense of subjectivity, self-esteem and gender identity, and how achieving against such odds has an impact on women’s everyday lives. Gender, Power and Organisation is particularly concerned with women who have achieved or aspire to professional power, and the psychological dimension of power for women, men and the organisations in which they work. Paula Nicolson is Lecturer in Psychology at the University of Sheffield Medical School, and has co-edited a number of books including Gender Issues in Clinical Psychology, The Psychology of Women’s Health and Health Care (both with Jane Ussher) and Female Sexuality: Psychology, Biology and Social Context (with Precilla Choi).

Horney & Humanistic Psychoanalysis
International Karen Horney Society About Karen Horney Horney & Humanistic Psychoanalysis Bernard J. Paris [This is a revised version of the chapter on Karen Horney that appeared in Personality and Personal Growth, fourth edition, edited by Robert Frager and James Fadiman, Longman, 1998. It incorporates the expanded section on "The Process of Psychotherapy" that appears in the fifth edition, and it omits various learning aids and "sides" (pertinent quotations in the margins) that are part of the published text.] Introduction Because her thought went through three distinct phases, Karen Horney has come to mean different things to different people. Some think of her primarily in terms of her essays on feminine psychology, written in the 1920s and early 1930s, in which she tried to modify Freud's ideas about penis envy, female masochism, and feminine development while remaining within the framework of orthodox theory. These essays were too far ahead of their time to receive the attention they deserved, but they have been widely read since their republication in Feminine Psychology in 1967, and there is a growing consensus that Karen Horney was the first great psychoanalytic feminist. Those who are attracted to the second stage of Horney's thought identify her primarily as a neo- Freudian member of "the cultural school," which also included Erich Fromm, Harry Stack Sullivan, Clara Thompson, and Abraham Kardiner. In The Neurotic Personality of Our Time (1937) and New Ways in Psychoanalysis (1939), Horney broke with Freud and developed a psychoanalytic paradigm in which culture and disturbed human relationships replaced biology as the most important causes of neurotic development.
