Sex in Psychoanalysis

By Sándor Ferenczi and SaÌndor Ferenczi

Book Overview

Sex in Psychoanalysis is a book written by Hungarian psychoanalyst S�����ndor Ferenczi. The book explores the role of sexuality in psychoanalysis and its impact on the therapeutic process. Ferenczi argues that sexuality is a fundamental aspect of human experience and that it plays a crucial role in shaping our emotional lives. He examines the ways in which sexual desire, repression, and expression are intertwined with the development of personality and the formation of relationships. Ferenczi also discusses the challenges that arise when sexuality is repressed or denied, and the ways in which psychoanalysis can help individuals to confront and work through these issues. Overall, Sex in Psychoanalysis is a fascinating and insightful exploration of the complex relationship between sexuality and psychology.1916. Contributions to psychoanalysis.
