Psychoanalysis and the Image brings together an influential team of international scholars to use psychoanalytical resources in the study of international modern art and visual representation. Beginning with a substantial introduction by the editor, the volume covers a range of psychoanalytic concepts, including melancholia, trauma, sexuality, the dream, and femininity.
"With greater clarity than ever, this book articulates the relevance of psychoanalysis for art historical interpretation. The result is a work that must necessarily figure in method and theory courses from now on." Keith Moxey, Barnard College, Columbia University
