Gutes Exemplar; Einband geringfügig berieben. - SELTEN. - Englisch. - In this book, Christina Wieland offers the reader a far-reaching and devastating critique of masculinity, femininity, and contemporary culture. Drawing inspiration from the work of Melanie Klein the author demonstrates how the Western psyche is based upon denial of the power of the mother, and the elevation of the father into a repressive, authoritarian figure. This act of universal matricide has wrought havoc throughout Western culture. As Wieland graphically illustrates, both women and men are denied the opportunity to mourn their separation from mother, but must contend instead with the guilt that surrounds her murder, and the ever-present terror of her vengeful return-as 'the undead mother'. Re-appraising masculinity and femininity, the author re-visits a wide and fascinating range of myths, fairytales and stories. Her critique casts new light on the writings of Freud, Klein, Kristeva and Irigaray. Her vivid presentations of clinical material also show how the undead mother makes her presence felt in the consulting-room, and the steps which can be taken towards more genuine, reparative mourning.
