Mourning Freud analyses Freud's experiences and theories of mourning as the basis
for exploring changes in psychoanalytic theories and practices over the course of
the 20th century. The modernist Freud of the early 20th century has ceded to the postmodern
Freud of the 21st. Madelon Sprengnether examines this phenomenon from the perspective
of Freud's self-analysis in relation to his generation of theory, the challenges and
transformations wrought by feminism, cultural studies and postmodernism, and the speculations
of contemporary neuroscience concerning the unreliability of memory. She offers a
significant interpretation of major biographical episodes in Freud's life, arguing
that Freud's inability to mourn the losses of his early life shaped his theories of
mourning, which in turn opened the field of pre-oedipal studies to his successors,
enabling a host of new psychoanalytic theories such as object relations, intersubjective
and countertransference theories, Lacanian analysis, and trauma theory. Many of these
approaches converge on the formulation of mourning as critical to the process of ego
development. Through this argument, Sprengnether traces the shift from modernism to
postmodernism-from an emphasis on mastery to vulnerability, from vertical to horizontal
systems of meaning-making, and from what is representable in words to the realm of
the nonverbal
