Noted Austrian-British psychoanalyst Anna Freud applied to child therapy.

Anna Freud, the sixth and last of Sigmund Freud and Martha Freud, followed the path of her father and contributed to the new field. Compared to her father, Freud's work emphasized the importance of the ego, and its ability to be trained socially.

“Birbirimizden çok şey beklememeliyiz,” diyor Anna Freud. “Dört kısa konuşmada size çalışması uzun yıllar süren bir bilimin en önemli ilkelerinden daha fazlasını sunmamı beklememelisiniz.” Bu kısa kitap psikanalize giriş düzeyinde bir okuma gerçekten de. Baba Freud’un çalışmaları hakkında detaylı bilgiye sahip olan okuyucular bu kitapta beklediklerini ne yazık ki bulamayacaklar.

Sadece son bölümdeki psikanalitik pedagoji ile ilgili düşüncelerini ilginç buldum Anna Freud’un: “Pedagojinin görevi uçlar arasında bir orta yol bulmak, bir başka deyişle çocuğun yaşamındaki her aşamada içgüdü zevki ile içgüdü kısıtlamalarının doğru oranlamasına izin vermektir.” Ne kadar yalın bir cümle, fakat ne kadar doğru. Hayattaki Nirvana arayışımızı neden anne-baba pedagojisine de uygulamayalım ki?

Four lectures by Anna Freud, Sigmund Freud's daughter. Was really winded and not too enjoyable. Though it was interesting to see how strictly she continued her father's work.

Great first exposure to psychoanalysis. The lectures really highlight the fact that psychoanalytic techniques can be useful to those who aren't full fledged psychoanalysts.
