Literature and Psychoanalysis Summary

Literature and Psychoanalysis: The Question of Reading: Otherwise by Shoshana Felman (Woodruff Professor of Comparative Literature and French, Emory University)

It remains the best work on literature and psychoanalysis, essential reading for anyone interested in pursuing the relations between the two or wanting to know about the possible effects of the French re-reading of Freud for a reading of literature.--'The Year's Work in English Studies.' Even the strictest clinical focus could profit from these essays,since there is always more to be learned about the complexities of language and narrative form, the colors and shapes in the language of the self struggling free of its silences.--'Modern Psychoanalysis.
