Lecture by Christina Hendricks for the "Remake/Remodel" theme. For more, see artsone-open.arts.ubc.ca/sigmu.... We apologize that the first twenty minutes of this lecture are missing.
I love the lecturer, she seems so interested and she knows what she is talking about !! I love the lecture, I've been reading Freud's book about illnesses and the one that really stuck to me was the analysis he made on Dora (and wolfsman, that was interesting as well) so I really wanted to listen to someone comment on it/explain it more carefully, subscribed :)
About Freuds cocaine use: he used it long before his illness and he did prescribe it. He stopped doing both after he had prescribed cocaine to treat a morphine addiction and that patient died due to an overdose of both drugs.
On page 84 Freud says Dora was handed congenital syphilis by her father. In his 3 essays he says on page 236 that none of his patients contracted syphilis from their fathers. Did or did not Dora suffer from syphilis?
I am not sure what her point is. The text reveals alot about Freud being forgetful and having unfinished works? Sounds ridiculous. Probably her Masters thesis or something. Good lecture otherwise. The lsd comment sounds entirely wrong.
What is she a lecturer in? She doesn't seem to know a lot of what she's talking about - either psychological background, literary terms, historical terms, history of science... it's really bizarre.
