The Concept of the Individual in Psychoanalysis
The Ego, the Self, the Subject, and the Person
About This Book
The Concept of the Individual in Psychoanalysis considers the different conceptions of the individual that are found in psychoanalysis according to the culture in which it operates, and its political structure.
Considering the origins and use of concepts including the Ego, the Self, the Subject, and the Person, Raul Moncayo integrates Lacanian analysis with Freudian and Jungian theory, philosophy, and religion. Moncayo expands on the concepts in different cultures and political structures, including English, French, German, and Chinese. The book also considers the concept of the self as used by Winnicott, Kohut, and Lacan.
The Concept of the Individual in Psychoanalysis will be of great interest to psychoanalysts in practice and in training, and to academics and students of Lacanian and psychoanalytic studies.
