The course examines the development of psychoanalysis through four key figures, each representing a distinct dimension of the field. Sigmund Freud is studied as the founder of psychoanalysis; Carl Jung as a representative of its spiritual orientation; Jacques Lacan as the central figure in the French tradition; and George Atwood as a contemporary advocate of a phenomenological approach.
