Is psychoanalysis a narrative of self-knowledge, or a movement of
lived time and the body? Psychoanalysis and the Time of Life
examines the relationship between therapy and the time of life,
presenting an original and thought-provoking re-reading of
psychoanalysis in relation to questions of lived time. Jan Campbell
investigates the early work of Freud, Janet, Breuer and Ferenczi,
linking their ideas to the philosophy of Bergson. The link between
psychoanalysis and the question of time connects these early
debates with current issues that are central to our global society.
Questions considered include: * is the unconscious based on
representation or affect? * is the Oedipal Complex hysterical? *
how is therapy related to the time of our life? * what is the role
of hypnosis, in relation to psychoanalytic theory and transference?
* Freud conceptualised the unconscious as timeless space, but what
would it mean to think of the unconscious as the very essence of
psychic bodily time? This book draws on the fields of traditional
psychoanalysis, philosophy, neuroscience, and trauma studies
providing a valuable new perspective on familiar concepts such as
identity and consciousness. It will be of interest to students
across the humanities and social sciences, and practicing
psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists.
