Desire, Pain and Thought: Primal Masochism and Psychoanalytic Theory

By Marilia Aisenstein

Desire, Pain and Thought presents a new perspective on primal erotogenic masochism, which Marilia Aisenstein regards as the core of psychoanalytic theory. Aisenstein distinguishes between pathological masochism - the active search for pain - and primal erotogenic masochism, which she believes develops in early childhood.
