Male and Female Internal Images in a Case of Frigidity

  • This is the first full-scale intellectual biography in English of Erich FROMM, perhaps the most widely read psychoanalyst after Freud, whose contributions to clinical and social psychology and the history of the psychoanalytic movement have long been underrated.... As a member of Freud's >loyal opposition< with strong leanings toward the >dissident fringe<, he helped effect the transfer of productive ideas from the periphery to the mainstream of the psychoanalytic movement. Daniel Burston's meticulous elucidation of these ideas unravels the numerous strands--philosophical, literary, and social--that formed a part of Freud's own work and of FROMM's sympathetic, but not uncritical, reaction to Freudian orthodoxy. / Burston's eloquent, evenhanded reassessment of FROMM's life and work cuts through the ideological and political underbrush to reveal his pivotal role as a theorist and a critic of modern psychoanalysis. It leads readers back to Freud, whose theoretical and clinical contributions FROMM refracted and extended, and on to controversies that remain a vital part of contemporary intellectual life. – Index: The man and his work – Freudo-Marxism and matriarchal theory: Early methodological perspectives – FROMM's clinical contributions – FROMM's existentialism – Studies in social character – Consensus, conformity, and false consciousness: >The pathology of normalcy< – Appraisals of FROMM by psychologists and psychiatrists – FROMM's contribution to the history of psychoanalysis – Oedipus, instinct, and the unconscious in the FROMM-Marcuse debate – Epilogue – Notes – References.
