One woman’s many significant contributions to feminist thought and analytical theory
Together we will explore the life and work of analyst Lou Andreas-Salomé—her upbringing and education, her personal life, her encounters with Friedrich Nietzsche, Rainer Maria Rilke and Sigmund Freud, her prolific writing, and her significant contributions to feminist thought and to analytical theory. Though she identified as Freudian, her views were far more holistic, in many ways more in line with Gerhard Adler and C. G. Jung, and she focused largely on developing a psychology of women from a woman’s perspective.
JON G. JACKSON, MD, is a retired neuropsychiatrist and depth psychotherapist who is also an award-winning poet. He teaches two extensive courses on Rilke’s Letters to a Young Poet and A Psychological Approach to the Old Testament, and a short course on The Mentors and Teachers of Rainer Maria Rilke. His book of poems is entitled Practicing Silence.
