This outstanding collection of essays explores the pervasive influence of psychoanalysis on culture and thought in the late twentieth century. Eminent contributors representing the fields of philosophy, history, anthropology, literature, art history, and psychoanalysis examine the scope and variety of Sigmund Freud's impact on the modern intellectual climate.
