520 Élisabeth Roudinesco offers a bold and modern
reinterpretation of the iconic founder of psychoanalysis.
Based on new archival sources, this is Freud's biography
for the twenty-first century--a critical appraisal, at
once sympathetic and impartial, of a genius greatly
admired and yet greatly misunderstood in his own time and
in ours. Roudinesco traces Freud's life from his
upbringing as the eldest of eight siblings in a prosperous
Jewish-Austrian household to his final days in London, a
refugee of the Nazis' annexation of his homeland. She
recreates the milieu of fin de siecle Vienna in the waning
days of the Habsburg Empire--an era of extraordinary
artistic innovation, given luster by such luminaries as
Gustav Klimt, Stefan Zweig, and Gustav Mahler. In the
midst of it all, at the modest residence of Berggasse 19,
Freud pursued his clinical investigation of nervous
disorders, blazing a path into the unplumbed recesses of
human consciousness and desire. Yet this revolutionary who
was overthrowing cherished notions of human rationality
and sexuality was, in his politics and personal habits, in
many ways conservative, Roudinesco shows. In his
chauvinistic attitudes toward women, and in his stubborn
refusal to acknowledge the growing threat of Hitler until
it was nearly too late, even the analytically-minded Freud
had his blind spots. Alert to his intellectual complexity-
-the numerous tensions in his character and thought that
remained unresolved--Roudinesco ultimately views Freud
less as a scientific thinker than as the master
interpreter of civilization and culture.|cProvided by
