Psychoanalysis & A Historical Story of GHENGHIS KHAN

About the Book

This is my second tryst with AUTHORHOUSE is continuation of my exploration of Socio Political Applications in History. The relationship between Psychoanalysis & Marxism, more specifically applications of Psychoanalytic techniques and methods for interpretation of life of modern Dictators and their sudden rise as offshoot of ultra rightwing, movements in History. Amongst Marxist Historians I was inspired by Historian Carl Schorske and his treatment of psychoanalysis and Sigmund Freud. His theoretical discovery that Sigmund Freud’s ‘Dream Book’ is essentially ‘counter political’ & that Freudian dialectic revolves around fundamental primal conflict in the mental life of Human being-Father- Son conflict or Repression and Instincts . The theme is adequately appropriate to be utilized as Universal and General Application for deciphering the historical characteristics of conflicts manifesting in socio political life of individuals, groups, classes, nations and states.
