More than a hundred years after its founding, psychoanalysis
remains influential and controversial far outside its core sphere
of activity in the 'clinic'. In a wide range of cultural and social
disciplines, psychoanalytic ideas are drawn on to explain human
subjectivity and its relationship with the social world. This lucid
and engaging book explores these interventions through detailed
examination of how psychoanalytic ideas apply in literature,
politics, social psychology, philosophy and psychosocial studies.
The highly-regarded and influential author, Stephen Frosh, shows
how psychoanalysis can at times greatly illuminate these fields of
study, and how at other times it might misread them. He also asks
what psychoanalysis can learn from the disciplines with which it is
in dialogue, and particularly how it can retain its own capacity
for critical thought. Sophisticated and stimulating, yet accessible
and approachable, this important book: * provides a critical
exploration that will stimulate further debate about the place of
psychoanalysis in intellectual life * develops the newly emerging
psychosocial perspective as one that links psychological and social
theories in novel ways. Psychoanalysis Outside the Clinic will be
of profound interest to students and academics across a wide range
of disciplines, particularly those taking courses in social,
cultural or political theory at undergraduate or postgraduate level
or studying on programmes in Psychoanalytic or Psychosocial
Studies.
