Decoding the Past The Psychohistorical Approach

8vo from front flap: "From a distinguished historian and psychoanalyst, here is a collection of brilliant essays on psychohistory, the discipline that has emerged from the synthesis of traditional historical analysis and clinical psychoanalysis. In these eleven essays (four published here for the first time), Peter Loewenberg surveys the field, its methods, its problems (historians have not always employed it responsibly or well), and demonstrates through his own work the special contributions that psychoanalysis can make to history." #02447.
