In this book, Perry Meisel argues that Freud's texts are properly
literary, and casts Freud as both literary theoretician and
practitioner. Here, after an introductory reception history of
Freud as literature, Meisel provides a series of close readings of
Freud's major texts that take literary representation as their
central focus.
As for Freud's influence on others, it, too, is structured like a
literary history, argues Meisel. He discusses Freud's influence on
modernism, Strachey's "Standard Edition" (once again the subject of
debate with the recent Penguin retranslations), and Freud's
influence on Michel Foucault. Finally, we explore the relationship
of Freud and literature. Does an understanding of how Freud himself
writes and influences help us to read literature and interpret it
anew?
