102. It's Pronounced Horn-Eye
from Freudian Sips · host Anna Keller & Bonnie Nytes
This week, the gals are talking about Karen Horney, a Neo-Freudian who fought back against some of Freud’s wackier ideas and ended up influencing a lot of other theorists. First, Anna chats about Karen’s history and career — including how she was kicked out of the psychoanalysis boy’s club and started her own place. Next Bonnie talks theory, exploring the ten (and then later, three) different kinds of neuroses that Karen identified, along with her ideas about basic anxiety and how it all relates to a person’s relationships with their parents and society.
