Psychoanalysis and Woman collects for the first time in one volume
the most important psychoanalytic writings on female sexuality and
women from Freud's contemporaries through French feminisms to
postmodernism and post-feminism. These primary texts introduce the
reader to a broad spectrum of works by primarily women theorists
writing within a number of different psychoanalytic
traditions.Psychoanalysis and Woman makes available a number of
fundamental, yet obscure and inaccessible early psychoanalytic
documents by women and places them within the context of later
women psychoanalytic theorists. Editor Shelley Saguaro provides a
concise contextual introduction addressing some of the sexual
political issues raised by psychoanalysis, while each section of
the volume is prefaced with more specific biographical and cultural
introductory material. Topics addressed include new reproductive
and sexual technologies, cybernetics, androgyny, the third sex,
pornography, and psychoanalysis and contemporary media/film
theory.Contributors include Sigmund Freud, Karen Horney, Helene
Deutsch, Jeanne Lampl-de Groot, Joan Riviere, Maria Torok, Melanie
Klein, Nancy Chodorow, Juliet Mitchell, Noreen O'Connor and Joanna
Ryan, Carl G. Jung, Esther Harding, Maria von Franz, Marion
Woodman, Jacques Lacan, H l ne Cixous, Luce Irigaray, Julie
Kristeva, Mary Jane Sherfey, Monique Wittig, Jacqeline Rose,
Camille Paglia, Judith Butler, and Jane Flax.
