Freud and Rome
Again
I've just started reading a book published last year by Cornell UP,
_Translations of Power: Narcissism and the Unconscious in Epic
History._ The second chapter is on the Aeneid, and seems to have
much material and bibliography on the function of Rome in Freud's
thought. The introductory chapter is a fairly spirited defense of
psychoanalysis against the New Historicism in general and Greenblatt
in particular. |
