Psychoanalysis as biological science
In this study, the author asserts that biological information is essential to successful and comprehensive psychoanalysis. The first is devoted to the controversies surrounding psychoanalysis as a discipline. Beginning with an overview of Freud's enduring contributions to the field, Gedo discusses the importance of both mental contents and reliable, measurable psychobiological data -- suggesting that hermeneutics alone cannot yield valid hypothes…

Reflections On Metapsychology, Theoretical Coherence, Hermeneutics, and Biology
Unable to correlate clinical findings with contemporary neurophysiology, Freud tried to anchor psychoanalysis within biology through a speculative metapsychology. Recently, epistemological objections have led to abandonment of his proposals qua scientific theory, although many still use them metaphorically. Others deny the need for any general theory of mental functions. Some theorists would espouse a hermeneutic basis for psychoanalysis, outside…

Working Through as Metaphor and as a Modality of Treatment
Although Freud encoded the idea of “working through” as a mere metaphor, it served the essential role of designating the necessary activities of analyst and analysand that go beyond the elucidation of mental contents through interpretation. From a neurobiological viewpoint, these processes involve the establishment of new neural networks through gradual habituation. From the vantage point of cognition, this necessarily slow process amounts to lea…
Psychoanalysis and the Sciences
Art Alone Endures
Sigmund Freud, a passionate collector of antiquities, often treated these objects as animate beings. He described such blurring of boundaries between persons and things in the protagonist of W. Jensen's novella, Gradiva. Freud began collecting when his father died, but his unusual attitude toward artefacts was established much earlier, presumably as a consequence of repeated early disappointments in human caretakers. It is postulated that this ad…
Between Prolixity and Reductionism
To achieve a coherent theory of mental functioning, psychoanalysis cannot continue to explicate its observations through the “complementary“ use of models based on differing premises. Moreover, the current profusion of plausible theories is unmanageably prolix; it is true, however, that theory must account for the complexity of constant shifts of developmental levels in terms of currently used adaptive devices. The simplest possible clinical theo…

Reflections On Some Current Controversies In Psychoanalysis
Recently published reports about completed analyses conducted by competent students with expert supervision permit us to compare two contrasting clinical traditions within psychoanalysis, that proposed by Heinz Kohut over the past decade and a conservative point of view sharply focused on elucidation of derivatives of the infantile neurosis. Analytic treatment based on each set of these theoretical assumptions will achieve valuable results--very …

The dissertation features two explicit case studies involving separate tragic stories of death of two women prior to consummating their marriage and the memorialization that intersects their cultural identities from distinct communities--on…
