A genuinely accessible introduction to Freud's theory and its application to literary and cultural studies. Few figures have had as much influence on Western thought as Sigmund Freud. His ideas permeate our culture to such a degree that an understanding of them is indispensable. Yet many otherwise well-informed students in the humanities labor under misconceptions about Freudian theory. There are countless introductions to Freudian psychoanalysis but, surprisingly, none that combine a genuinely accessible account of Freud's ideas with an introduction to their use in literary and cultural studies, as this book does. Written specifically for use by advanced undergraduate and graduate students in courses dealing with literary and cultural criticism, it is also of interest to the general reader. The first part of the book explains Freud's key ideas and refutes many popular misconceptions, using examples throughout. The assumption underlying this account is that Freud offers not simply a model of the mind, but an analysis of the relation between the individual and society. The second part addresses the implications of Freudian psychoanalysis for the study of literature and culture, again using plentiful examples. Existing books focus either on Freudian psychoanalysis in general or on psychoanalytic literary or cultural criticism; the latter tend to be abstract and theoretical in nature. None of them are suitable for readers who are interested in psychoanalysis as a tool for literary and cultural criticism but have no firm knowledge of Freud's ideas. 'Freud's Theory and Its Use in Literary and Cultural Studies' fills this gap. Henk de Berg is Professor of German at the University of Sheffield, UK.

“This is a fascinating comparative study. Well written and well researched. I’d thoroughly recommend it”. -Frank McDonough, author of Hitler and the Rise of the Nazi Party and The Hitler Years “This thought-provoking book lets us see Trump as a leader in the authoritarian tradition and reminds us that the playbook Hitler used did not vanish after 1945”. -Ruth Ben-Ghiat, author of Strongmen “By comparing the underlying commonalities between Hitler and Trump, de Berg a way to decode the sway charismatic leaders have on their followers across the ages”. -Peter Pomerantsev, author of How to Win an Information War: Sefton Delmer, the Genius Propagandist Who Outwitted Hitler This book compares Trump and Hitler as political performance artists. It explores their populist self-staging and rhetorical strategies and explains how they connected with their respective audiences. It also analyses the two men’s character, work ethic, and management style. In addition, the book addresses seemingly peripheral issues like the reasons behind Hitler’s toothbrush moustache and Trump’s hairstyle. By demystifying Hitler and Trump, the author throws new light on both of them received a Choice Outstanding Academic Title Award and has been translated into three European languages as well as Chinese.
