- Summary:
- This original collection brings together by one of the most influential minds of the twentieth century, the most important writings on the psychology of love. Sigmund Freud's discussions of the ways in which, consciously or unconsciously, sexuality is always psychosexuality (i.e., there is no sexuality without fantasy) have changed social, cultural, and intellectual attitudes toward erotic life. The pieces included here present the development of Freud's now-famous theories about childhood and the transgressive nature of human desire. "The Psychology of Love" includes: Fragment of an Analysis of Hysteria (Dora)? Three Essays on Sexual Theory? On the Sexual Theories of Children? Contributions to the Psychology of Erotic Life? On Female Sexuality?
