Title: Anteros : A Forgotten Myth
Author: Stephenson, Craig E
Price: Not Available
ISBN: 9780415572309
Description: London and New York: Routledge, 2012. 24cm., hardcover, 157pp. illus. Summary: Anteros: A Forgotten Myth explores how the myth of Anteros disappears and reappears throughout the centuries, from classical Athens to the present day, and looks at how the myth challenges the work of Freud, Lacan, and Jung, among others. It examines the successive cultural experiences that formed and inform the myth and also how the myth sheds light on individual human experience and the psychoanalytic process. This book presents an important argument at the boundaries of the disciplines of analytical psychology, psychoanalysis, art history, and mythology. It will therefore be essential reading for all analytical psychologists and psychoanalysts as well as art historians and those with an interest in the meeting of psychoanalytic thought and mythology. Contents: Resident Alien: Anteros in Classical Greek and Roman Settings. La Récuperation: Anteros in the Italian Renaissance. Anteros as Contr’amour in the French Enlightenment. Chthonic Anteros in the French Romantic Cosmology. Anteros at the Threshold of English Modernism. Contemporary Artists of the Anterotic. Psychologizing Anteros: Freud, Lacan, Girard. Psychologizing Anteros: Jung. Three Anterotic Moments in a Consulting Room. An Open End: Anteros as a More Visible Mystery.
