In Freud's Student Years, Florian Houssier presents the life experiences and inner conflicts of Sigmund Freud from his eighteenth birthday to his clinical practice, showing how these experiences informed his later theories.

Following on from Freud's Adolescence: Oedipus Complex and Parricidal Tendencies (2023) and starting at the point of the young Freud's graduation, Houssier charts the inception of Freud's ideas on fantasy, the Madonna-Whore complex, the Oedipal Complex, mother-daughter relationships and narcissism. Working chronologically, he looks at the way Freud's reflection and lamentation on his inhibited adolescence led to a fantasy of possession that informed his later work. Including excerpts from Freud's private letters to his fiancée, Martha Bernays, and exploring his relationship with Sándor Ferenczi, this volume offers a unique and intimate look into the life and inner workings of the most eminent figure of modern psychoanalysis.

Accessible in style and thorough in its assessments of Freud's personal experiences, this book is an essential read for psychoanalysts and psychologists, as well as students and scholars interested in the history of psychoanalysis and the enduring legacy of Freudian thought.

Florian Houssier is a clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst (Société de Psychanalyse Freudienne). He is Professor of Clinical Psychology and Psychopathology at the Sorbonne, France; Director of the Laboratory Transversal Unit of Research: Psychogenesis and Psychopathology (UTRPP); and President of the Collège International de L'Adolescence (CILA).
