Taking Freud's countertransference to Eckstein's trauma into account leads to a radically different understanding of the origins of psychoanalysis from the one based on the solipsistic perspective of his self-analysis. Carlo Bonomi argues that the unacknowledged trauma of circumcision was inscribed in Freud's system of thinking as an amputated legacy from which the dreams and fantasies of his closest disciples would germinate and bloom. In particular, Sándor Ferenczi, Freud's pupil and confidant, would help to restore this wounded body, thereby laying a new foundation for psychoanalytic theory and practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBonomi's \"apocalyptic\" narrative will expand the conceptual horizons of psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists, historians of psychoanalysis, and scholars of both gender studies and Jewish studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCarlo Bonomi\u003c\/strong\u003e, Ph.D., is a training and supervising analyst of the Società Italiana di Psicoanalisi Sándor Ferenczi, president of the International Sándor Ferenczi Network (ISFN), co-editor-in-chief of \u003ci\u003eThe Wise Baby\/Il poppante saggio\u003c\/i\u003e, and associate editor of the \u003ci\u003eInternational Forum of Psychoanalysis\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 266\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 20, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52733757587763,"sku":"9781032404332","price":81.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/NGNzRWlXV2cyVElBaDNmQjc3NjB6UT09.webp?v=1763946165","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/a-brief-apocalyptic-history-of-psychoanalysis-erasing-trauma-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
