Sigmund Freud's discovery of psychoanalysis explores links between
Freud's development of his thinking and theory and his personal
emotional journey. It follows his early career as a medical
student, researcher and neurologist, and then as a psychotherapist,
to focus on the critical period 1895-1900. During these years Freud
submitted himself to the process that has become known as his
'self-analysis', and developed the core of his psychoanalytic
theory. Drawing on Freud's letters to his friend and confidant
Wilhelm Fliess, and on selected psychoanalytic writings in
particular his 'dream of Irma's injection', Paul Schimmel
formulates psychoanalytic dimensions to the biographical 'facts' of
Freud's life. In 1900 Freud wrote that he was 'not a thinker' but
'a conquistador'. In reality he was both, and was engaged in a
lifelong emotional struggle to bring these contradictory sides of
his personality into relationship. His psychoanalytic discoveries
are conceptualized in the context of his need to achieve
integration within his psyche, and in particular to forge a more
creative collaboration between 'conquistador' and 'thinker'.
Sigmund Freud's discovery of psychoanalysis will be of interest to
psychoanalysts, psychoanalytic psychotherapists, academics and
teachers of psychoanalysis, and to all serious students of the
mind.
