Seminar Objectives:
- Describe the historical significance of Freud’s and Breuer’s famous case, “Anna O.”
- Recognize a feminist perspective of Bertha Pappelheim’s central influence in the development of ‘talking cure’ in psychoanalysis
- Be familiar with another case history of “Katharina” created by Freud in the 1890’s
- Recognize how Freud’s gradual rejection of the ‘Seduction Hypothesis’ contributed to the development of a psychoanalysis of the mind (with ongoing controversy in psychotherapeutic circles between the role ‘psychic reality’ and ‘historical/objective reality’ in development of mental illness)
