Myth Psychoanalysis: Freud, Lacan and Lévi-Strauss examines the human psyche through the theoretical lenses of three groundbreaking thinkers, exploring how humans craft their symbolic reality. This innovative work treats the exemplary cases of Freud as myths, parallel to native myths in their structure and the knowledge they harbor. The book reviews what Freud, Lacan and Lévi-Strauss would say on various aspects of the human psyche, identifying commonalities and discrepancies while distilling truths that resonate through the intersection of their perspectives. Through twelve comprehensive chapters, the work explores creation myths, kinship relations, totemism, and the structural foundations of meaning-making in both clinical and cultural contexts. The author employs a storytelling style that brings to life fascinating narratives from native myths and psychoanalytic case studies, making complex theoretical concepts accessible through engaging examples and biographical insights. This book is fascinating reading for psychoanalysts, mental health professionals, and those familiar with Freud, Lacan, or Lévi-Strauss who seek to enrich their knowledge and clinical application.
