Judith Le Soldat heute. Theorie und Praxis.
Published in German. The work of the Swiss Psychoanalyst Judith Le Soldat (1947 – 2008) revises and expands the classical theory of the Oedipus Complex and thus closes gaps in the psychoanalytic development theory. Le Soldat revolutionizes the way of looking at hitherto insufficiently understood developments and disorders, and provides the Psychoanalyst a powerful instrument to see, understand and treat previously incomprehensible clinical phenomena. The series Judith Le Soldat heute. Theorie und Praxis. publishes texts about Le Soldat’s thinking and theoretical concepts as well as on their application in various fields.
Volume 1: Published in September 2021!
Trieb und Ödipus. Einführung in das Denken und Werk von Judith Le Soldat.
Herausgegeben von Markus Fäh. Published in German. Edited by Markus Fäh. With the cooperation of Elisabeth Geiger and Christoph Kappeler. With contributions of Markus Fäh, Elisabeth Geiger, Monika Gsell, Christoph Kappeler and Dominic Suter.
Judith Le Soldat made groundbreaking discoveries as part of her theory of Oedipal development: The child creates imaginary organs, in fantasy commits acts of castration, robbery, murder and treason, and thereby gets into hopeless and desperate psychological situations. These infantile solutions leave deep traces in the human psyche und lead to the fatal human tendency towards unhappiness. This innovative expansion of Oedipal development theory fills gaps in Classical Psychoanalysis and opens up new perspectives and more effective treatment approaches, especially for success inhibitions, anxiety, depression and sexual symptoms.
In the first volume of the series, experts in the Le Soldat Theory first introduce her new and expanded theory of the Oedipus Complex, and then illustrate by means of detailed child observations and treatment reports with adult patients the clinical and therapeutic relevance and application. The book is aimed equally at experienced Psychoanalysts and Psychotherapists as well as students and interested laypersons.
