Psychoanalysis and Women, Volume 32 of The Annual of
Psychoanalysis, is a stunning reprise on theoretical,
developmental, and clinical issues that have engaged analysts from
Freud on. It begins with clinical contributions by Joyce McDougall
and Lynne Layton, two theorists at the forefront of clinical work
with women, and moves on to original essays by theorists who have
reshaped, and continue to reshape, our understanding of the
developmental and psychological experiences of women. Jessica
Benjamin, Julia Kristeva, and Ethel Spector Person, from their
respective vantage points, all engage the issue of passivity, which
Freud tended to equate with femininity. Employing a
self-psychological framework, Christine Kieffer returns to the
Oedipus complex and sheds new light on the typically Pyrrhic
oedipal victory of little girls. Section III broadens the
historical context of contemporary theorizing about, and clinical
approaches to, women by offering the personal reminiscences of
Nancy Chodorow, Carol Gilligan, Brenda Solomon, and Malkah Notman.
historical essays on Ida Bauer (Freud's Dora), Anna Freud, Dorothy
Burlingham, Edith Jacobson, and Therese Benedek, along with Linda
Hopkins's revealing interview of Marion Milner. Of special note is
Marian Tolpin's examination of three women - Bauer, Helene Deutsch,
and Anna Freud - who helped shape Freud's notion of the female
castration complex, and Elisabeth Young-Bruehl's exploration of how
two women - Anna Freud and Dorothy Burlingham - developed
parent-infant observation. Psychoanalysis and Women is an
extraordinary chronicle of the distance traveled since Freud
characterized women's sexual life as the dark continent. Wrestling
with the vicissitudes of early female development, with the way in
which culture interpenetrates the psychological life of women, and
with the roles of autonomy and relatedness in the psychological
life of men and women alike, the contributors to this collection
engage large questions with large consequences. they broaden
clinical sensibilities by drawing on recent developmental,
gender-related, and social-psychological research. In so doing,
they attest to the ongoing reconfiguration of Freud's dark
continent and show the psychoanalytic psychology of women to be
very much a revolution in progress.
