It focuses on the way in which Freud divides fear and envy between the sexes, allocating the emotion of (castration) fear to men, and that of (penis) envy to women. On the one hand, the problems of this construction are pointed out, but on the other hand, it is shown that even a much-maligned myth may still provide food for thought. Then, four critiques of Freud which have been articulated by prominent feminist psychoanalysts — Karen Horney, Nancy Chodorow, Luce Irigaray, and Jessica Benjamin — are presented, as well as the alternative visions of sexual identities which these thinkers have developed.

  • The War Against Women in Psycho Analytic Culture
    THE WAR AGAINST WOMEN IN PSYCHOANALYTIC CULTURE An Investigation YY6937-PSOC-69.indd6937-PSOC-69.indd 3333 33/10/16/10/16 110:06:200:06:20 AAMM The War against Women in Psychoanalytic Culture Introduction to the Section CLAUDIA LAMENT, PH.D. Freud is the father of psycho analysis. It had no mother. — Germaine Greer, The Female Eunuch The phrase “the war against women” refers to the overt and stealth global prejudice against women that aims to subjugate them. Freud was not im- mune to this prejudice, as can be seen in those late-nineteenth-century Vic- torian views about sexuality that helped to shape his conceptualizations of gender. Despite the fact that many of these antediluvian views have been overturned, some continue to live on in the contemporary psychoanalytic scene. This introduction provides an overview of the contributions in this section, which explore how the war quietly or openly insinuates its way into our psycho analytic culture. The offerings will undoubtedly appeal to the readership, whether one’s interest concerning the war leans toward considering a contemporary recontextualization of foundational tenets within the psychoanalytic setting, which directly affect women; how it ap- pears within the domain of the consulting room; third-wave feminism’s reach into theory and practice; or forms of institutional and organiza- tional prejudice on the local and national levels, including the fi eld of child analysis. Claudia Lament is a Training and Supervising Analyst at the Institute for Psychoanalytic Education, an affi liate of the New York University Langone School of Medicine.

  • The Life Narrative at Midlife
    McAdams, D. P. (2014). The life narrative at midlife. In B. Schiff (Ed.), Rereading Personal Narrative and the Life Course. New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 145, 57–69. 5 The Life Narrative at Midlife Dan P.McAdams Abstract In a remarkably prescient chapter,Bertram Cohler (1982) reimagined the prob- lems and the potentialities of psychological development across the life course as a distinctively human challenge in life narration. This chapter situates Cohler’s original vision within the intellectual and scienti c matrix of the late 1970s, wherein psychologists expressed grave doubts about the extent to which human lives may demonstrate consistency and coherence. By focusing attention on hu- man beings as autobiographical authors rather than as mere social actors or motivated agents, Cohler moved the conversation away from dispositional per- sonality traits and developmental stages and toward the emerging concept of narrative identity. Over the past 30 years, research on narrative identity has shown how people use stories to integrate the reconstructed past and imagined future, providing their lives with some semblance of unity, purpose, and mean- ing. At midlife, many adults struggle to solve the problem of generativity, aiming to leave a positive legacy for the next generation. Inspired by Cohler’s original chapter,contemporary research reveals that the most generative adults in Amer- ican society tend to construe their lives as narratives of personal redemption. As such, life stories may serve as valuable psychological resources for midlife adults, even as they re"ect and refract prevailing cultural themes. 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

  • Feminist Studies in Psychology: an Overview Bonnie J
    Research R epot Feminist Studies in Psychology: An Overview Bonnie j. Miller-McLemore most of the history of modern psychology, men more than women ٠٢? speculated about the nature of human growth and fulfillment. Their subjects were most often other men. £ven when women were subjects, conclusions ultimately rested upon male models and ideals, ?sychologists became accustomed to seeing life “through men’s eyes,” as Carol Gilligan has said so well. Women were basically excluded “from critical theory- building studies,” whether of human sexuality, cognitive development, or moral stages.* Likewise, in everyday life, “women’s reality” or ideas and understandings commonly held by women were all too often labeled “sick, bad, crazy, stupid, ugly, or incompetent.” The “White Male Sys- tem,” explained psychotherapist Anne Wilson Schaef, sets the normative agenda for human behavior and health.* Gilligan and Schaef are only a few of the people now churning out research in psychology that challenges the normativity of male experience and provides new understandings of gender, sexuality, selfhood, growth, and fulfillment. This research has only just begun to affect pastoral practice and theological language. Many clergy and other professionals now recognize that they must understand women and men within more inclusive psychological and theological frameworks. Ultimately these new frameworks have the power to transform divine imagery and devotional practices. As requested by the editors of the International Journal of Practical Theology, my intent is to report on this relatively new and growing body of literature in the United States and to indicate some of its implications for practical theology. Since a research report such as this cannot cover all of the publications and trends of the past three decades, I will attempt to provide a taste of the major developments through attention to prominent works.* I will give more attention to early and pivotal works, in part York ١٧^^ :Carol Gilligan, quoted by Francine Frose, Confident at 11, Confused at 16, in 1 .

The linchpin of Freudian psychoanalysis is sexuality, as Sigmund Freud is acutely aware when he declares that the Oedipus complex as the peak of infantile sexuality is the shibboleth of psychoanalysis (TE 92). Although anatomy is not yet its destiny with a breast-sucking infant, Freud still contends that its first experience of pleasure is a sexual one. Perhaps more disturbingly, he believes that the friendly feelings of an analysand, in case of the positive transference, "rest ultimately on an erotic basis," going on to conclude: "(A] ll the feelings of sympathy, friendship, trust and so forth which we expend in life are Key Words: Sigmund Freud, Sexuality, Freudian Subject, Instinct, Sexual Drive, Eros, Ego, Id, Super-Ego 132 '2Jifi=~ J:il57~ (2007) genetically connected with sexuality and have developed out of purely sexual desires by an enfeebling of their sexual aim, however pure and non-sensual they may appear in the forms they take on to our conscious self-perception.

If this statement peculiarly casts the developmental model of sexuality in the timeless realm of psyche, Freud's focal point is that regardless of whether we have affectionate feelings toward an object in our earliest or later stages of psychosexual development, that object has been and always will be a sexual aim insofar as our unconscious is concerned.

The dominance of psychoanalysis holds true for Wordsworth scholar- ship, an area in which, given the poet’s developmental concerns, psychological orientations seem particularly apropos. Unfortunately, Freud’s most basic assumptions about infant experience, still credited in various forms by Lacanian and many feminist scholars, are no longer accepted by developmental psychologists, who regard the infant as a self-organizing system engaged in a fundamentally productive and social relationship with his primary caregiver, usually his mother. By contrast, psychoanalysis, which opposes union with the mother in the state of primary narcissism to separation and individuation, envisions the mother- infant relationship as paradigmatically conflicted.
