Publisher's Synopsis

Psychoanalysis and Aesthetics is a book written by Charles Baudouin that explores the relationship between psychoanalysis and aesthetics. The book delves into the ways in which psychoanalysis can help us understand the nature of art and beauty, and how these concepts relate to our innermost thoughts and feelings. Baudouin argues that the study of aesthetics can be enriched by an understanding of the unconscious mind, and that psychoanalysis can help us to better understand the emotional and psychological impact of works of art. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the role of the artist in society, the nature of creativity, and the ways in which art can be used as a form of therapy. It is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the intersection between psychology and aesthetics, and a must-read for anyone interested in these fields.1924. Translated from the French by Eden and Cedar Paul. Contents: Les Tendresses Premieres; Les Flamandes and Les Moines; The Crisis; Conversion and Deliverance; An Oedipus Trilogy; and Life in All Its Ardour.
