Description
Elizabeth Severn: The 'Evil Genius' of Psychoanalysis is a reappraisal of her life and work, shedding new light on her contribution to modern psychoanalysis. Condemned by Freud as "an evil genius", Severn's influence was expelled from the psychoanalytic mainstream. This book presents a fresh perspective on her analysis by Ferenczi, which led to a new theory and methodology for treating trauma disorder. Severn's progressive views on clinical empathy, self-disclosure, countertransference analysis, intersubjectivity, and relational analysis are re-examined in this study. The author draws on years of research into Severn's papers, including previously unpublished interviews, books, brochures, and photographs. This reappraisal offers a nuanced understanding of Severn's work and its significance for psychoanalysts seeking to expand their knowledge. This book is of interest to those looking to gain fresh insights into Severn's pioneering role in the study and treatment of trauma disorder.
