Description
xWith a new introduction from the author, this critical text of feminist theory explores how Freud's work helps us understand the subjugation of women today. Psychoanalysis and Feminism had a double task of explaining Freud's work both to its mistaken attackers and at the same time to those who were ignorant of it. Juliet Mitchell argued that an analysis of patriarchy was not a recommendation of it. Quite the contrary, it was indispensable for explaining the continuing 'second sex' status of women. Its argument is as effective and valid today as it was then, and the author will introduce her theories afresh for a new generation of readers and the psycho-social conditions fifty years later.
