This book explores the life, scholarly oeuvre and intellectual
connections of the significant "first generation" Hungarian female
psychoanalysts, situating their lives within the wider context of
social history and the history of psychoanalysis. Budapest was one
of the main centres of psychoanalysis in the early 20th century -
in a period which was also central regarding women's changing roles
and possibilities. Favourable social circumstances met a new,
freshly developing profession's need for receptive followers
regardless of their sex. This book shines a light on the social and
professional factors on the life and work of these first women
psychoanalysts, examining documentary evidence of their lives and
drawing upon the literature of psychoanalysis, social history, and
gender studies. Through their life stories, not only the history of
psychoanalysis, but also the processes of 20th-century women's
history and social-political developments in Hungary and the region
can be reconstructed. Key psychoanalysts explored include Lilly
Hajdu, Edit Gyoemroi, Alice Balint, Vilma Kovacs, Lillian Rotter
and twelve further women analysts. This important book will be of
interest to researchers in gender studies, the history of
psychoanalysis, women's and gender history, and Eastern European
history.
