“Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Freud But Were Afraid to Ask Hitchcock” A close study of the writings of Sigmund Freud, beginning with the 1895 volume, "Studies on Hysteria." Emphasis will be placed on Freud’s methodological contributions to the development of Western thought, on psychoanalysis as a critical and theoretical apparatus, and on Freud’s value for literary and cinema studies. Examples of the elaboration or application of Freudian methodology will include works by Melanie Klein, Jacques Lacan, Shoshana Felman, Peter Brooks, Kaja Silverman, and Slavoj Zizek. We will draw our examples for textual analysis from the films of Alfred Hitchcock.
