Preview The Cambridge companion to Freud

This page intentionally left blank This is the second in a series of companions to major philoso- phers that Cambridge will be issuing in the next few years. Each volume will contain specially commissioned essays by an international team of scholars together with a substantial bibliography, and will serve as a reference work for students and nonspecialists. One aim of the series is to dispel the intimidation such readers often feel when faced with the work of a difficult and challenging thinker. Does Freud still have something to teach us? The premise of this volume is that he most certainly does. Approaching Freud from not only the philosophical but also historical, psychoanalytical, anthropological, and sociological perspec- tives, the contributors show us how Freud gave us a new and powerful way to think about human thought and action. They consider the context of Freud's thought and the struc- ture of his arguments to reveal how he made sense of ranges of experience generally neglected or misunderstood. All the central topics of Freud's work from sexuality and neurosis to morality, art, and culture are covered. New readers and nonspecialists will find this the most convenient, accessible guide to Freud currently available. Advanced students and specialists will find a conspectus of recent developments in the interpretation of Freud.
