«L’ascendant de Darwin sur Freud» is Lucille B. Ritvo’s essay on Darwin and Freud, published by Gallimard in paperback (342 pages, in French).
Study of Darwin’s influence on Freud: it explores notions such as regression, heredity, conflict and the primal horde, and shows how biological ideas are transformed when they pass into the psychic realm. It places Freud in the wake of Copernicus and Darwin as the author of a new ‘vexation’ to human pride.
Part of Gallimard’s «Connaissance de l’inconscient» collection and includes a foreword by Patrick Lacoste.
For readers interested in the history of psychoanalysis, evolutionary theory, and the intersection of biology and psychology.
