Zabilješke: A seminal historical and theoretical study by Mari Jo Buhle, this exceptional monograph offers a fascinating overview of the century-long, complex, and often tense relationship between two of the 20th century's greatest theories of liberation—feminism and psychoanalysis. Buhle meticulously traces the evolution of this dialogue within the United States, beginning with Freud’s historic 1909 lecture attended by radical feminist Emma Goldman, all the way through its later phases and the powerful influence of Jacques Lacan. Across nine comprehensive chapters, the author analyzes both orthodox and revisionist currents, the impact of popular culture, and the ways in which feminist movements compelled psychoanalysis to redefine female subjectivity, psychosexual development, and environmental influences on personality formation. The book is equipped with detailed notes and an index, making it indispensable reading for scholars of gender studies, the history of ideas, and psychoanalytic theory.
