  • Title: [Sigmund Freud and modern psychoanalysis].
    Author: Sebek M.
    Journal: Cas Lek Cesk; 1990 Mar 30; 129(13):385-8. PubMed ID: 2188723.
    Abstract:
    In September 1989 50 years have elapsed since the death of one of the most distinguished personalities of science and culture in this century, Sigmund Freud. Although born in Príbor in Moravia, he spent most of his productive life in Vienna. He became the founder and pioneer of psychoanalysis--a therapeutic method of neuroses and the remarkable psychological theory which by its emphasis on unconscious, deep underlying psychic processes caused a great advance of knowledge of man of himself. Nowadays psychoanalysis is used in the world not only as a therapeutic method in neuroses, personality disorders and psychosomatic diseases but is developed further as a theoretical and scientific discipline which in many respects exceeds Freud's basic work. Modern psychoanalytic literature was not published in this country in recent decades and thus those interested in it have little opportunity to become familiar with it. Health authorities in advanced countries accept psychoanalysis and thus also in our conditions a place must be sought for psychoanalysis at least in the system of psychiatric and psychotherapeutic care.
