Book Synopsis

Greek Folktales and Psychoanalysis presents a dialogue between psychoanalysis and folktales from the Greek oral tradition, many of which have never before been published in English.

Each folktale or group of related tales is presented in full, followed by an analytic text that explores the central themes. The wealth of tales includes versions of oral stories that have been passed down through generations and that will provide professionals in the psychoanalytic field with a vast, unexpected panoply of strong images and metaphors on which to draw in their clinical work.

Greek Folktales and Psychoanalysis will be of great interest to psychoanalysts in practice and in training. It will also be relevant reading for academics and students of psychoanalytic literary criticism, folklore and oral tradition, Greek history and culture, mythology and anthropology.
