Omschrijving

'Freud in Cambridge is an extraordinary and detailed account of an aspect of the British life of psychoanalysis little examined in intellectual history. Cambridge seems on its surface less rich than the London centre of psychoanalysis. Yet what Forrester and Cameron show is how extraordinarily rich this tale is … Without a doubt this is one of the most important books on twentieth-century British intellectual history I have read in a very long time.' Sander L. Gilman, author of Freud, Race, and Gender

'Freud in Cambridge is an extraordinary and detailed account of an aspect of the British life of psychoanalysis little examined in intellectual history. Cambridge seems on its surface less rich than the London centre of psychoanalysis.

Sander L. Gilman, author of Freud, Race, and Gender

'In this wonderful book, John Forrester and Laura Cameron explore a forgotten moment in the impact of Freud's ideas in the UK, bringing to life widespread excitement about, and engagement with, psychoanalysis in Cambridge in the early twentieth century.' Liz Bondi, University of Edinburgh

'Despite its in-depth scholarship, the pace of the engaging narrative rarely flags and it is as consistently entertaining as it is informative.' Ann Kennedy Smith, The Times Literary Supplement

'Another of the strengths of this book is its considerable creativity and originality will reach a broader scholarly (and even a general audience) than competing books about Cantabragians not mentioned in standard histories of Freud's influence.' Jason Wakefield, Avello Publishing Journal

'Freud in Cambridge will appeal to novel-readers as much as to historians and psychoanalysts, providing a treasure trove of anecdotes and gossip, along with rich analysis of intellectual trends.' Maud Ellmann, Psychoanalysis and History

'… in writing a history of Freud marked precisely through his absence, the authors draw together a diverse and fractured history, one that fills a geographical vacuum. Enabling their readership to picture and to populate a history of Cambridge, crucial to our developing understanding of a particularly English appropriation of Freud.' Hazel Morrison, Journal of Historical Geography

'In producing this impressive book the authors have used a wealth of sources, including many previously unpublished letters and other documents located in various archives. … this is a thoroughly readable, insightful and very welcome volume. Most importantly, it represents a fitting legacy for John Forrester …' Geoffrey Cantor, Psychodynamic Practice

'Together, Forrester and Cameron produced a magnificent work of scholarship, nearly seven hundred pages in length, chronicling the development of Freudian thought in Cambridge. A tour de force of intellectual history and 'local history' … a fitting testament to John Forrester's many contributions to the development of psychoanalytical scholarship.' Brett Kahr, Confer (www.confer.uk.com)

John Forrester (1949–2015) was Professor of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Cambridge and Head of the HPS department for seven years. He was Editor of the journal Psychoanalysis and History from 2005 to 2014, and authored Freud's Women (with Lisa Appignanesi, 1992), Dispatches from the Freud Wars (1997) and Truth Games (1997), amongst other titles. He published over fifty papers in scholarly journals, principally concerned with the history and philosophy of psychoanalysis. His work on cases as a genre and as a style of reasoning was posthumously published as Thinking in Cases (2016). Laura Cameron is an Associate Professor of Historical Geography at Queen's University, Kingston, Canada. She is the author of Openings: A Meditation on History, Method and Sumas Lake (1997), the co-editor of Emotion, Place and Culture (2009) and Rethinking the Great White North: Race, Nature and the Historical Geographies of Whiteness (2011), and has published numerous papers on the history of fieldwork, psychoanalysis, ecology and sound.
