Beskrivning

Time and timelessness are fundamental principles of psychoanalysis yet Freud does not present a consolidated theory of temporality. In this book Kelly Noel-Smith pieces together Freud's scattered 'hints' and 'suspicions' about time and its negative, timelessness. She traces a careful temporal trail through Freud’s published works and his daunting Nachlass, and provides a compelling reason as to why Freud kept his remarkable thoughts about time to himself.

Recensioner i media

"Noel-Smith's book is an original and scholarly inquiry into Freud's constructions of time and timelessness. ... Thankfully, Noel-Smith's contribution offers us a modern reading of a return to Freud and a beautiful explication of his theories of time." (Ryan Allison, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 62 (4), January, 2017)
