Lesbians, feminism, and psychoanalysis : the second wave

J. Glassgold, S. Iasenza

This volume presents a collection of psychoanalytically influenced authors writing about lesbian concerns. Profound changes have occurred within psychoanalysis due to the efforts of lesbian, gay, and bisexual scholars and the evolution of psychoanalytic theory away from classical models. The writers in this volume represent a second generation of scholars who have more latitude in using psychoanalysis to study sexual orientation and gender. The article summarizes the major changes in this field and outlines areas where further improvements in psychoanalysis can occur.[Copies are available from: Haworth Document Delivery Center.
