This book explores how psychoanalytic principles can be applied when working with parents and toddlers in groups. Illustrated with lively observations, it discusses how these parent-toddler groups can be an effective medium for early intervention during a period which is critical for the negotiation of a child’s central emotional issues. Parents and Toddlers in Groups demonstrates the particular challenges of the toddler phase and its contribution to an individual’s future development and relationships. Focusing on an approach developed by the Anna Freud Centre and comprising chapters from a range of expert contributors, topics include: the history, theory and practice of parent-toddler groups at the Anna Freud Centre how this approach has been adapted and applied across a wide range of settings and cultures the findings of research projects carried out on parent-toddler groups. This book will be a valuable resource for practitioners wanting to reach parents and young children in community, educational and a variety of other settings.

In this volume, Christiane Ludwig-Körner describes the lives and work of the staff members of the War Nurseries set up and run by Anna Freud and Dorothy Burlingham during the Second World War. The Women of Anna Freud’s War Nurseries looks in turn at each of the women who helped run the homes in Hampstead: Alice Goldberger, Sophie and Gertrud Dann, Manna Friedmann, Anneliese Schnurmann, Ilse Hellman and Hansi Kennedy. As young women, they narrowly escaped the Holocaust and dedicated themselves to children who had suffered the same fate. Few arrived with any knowledge of psychoanalytic theories or methods; this volume charts their education from Freud and Burlingham, which eventually lead t...
With over 100 archival photographs and nine original, wide-ranging essays, Freud/Tiffany brings to life the fascinating intersection of psychoanalysis and education. Out of the cultural and political ferment of inter-war Vienna emerged the Hietzing School, founded in the 1920s by Anna Freud, the youngest daughter of Sigmund Freud, and Dorothy Tiffany Burlingham, the youngest daughter of the great American artist Louis Comfort Tiffany. Anna Freud’s story unfolds over three decades from her adolescence through the 1940s, as she and Dorothy Tiffany Burlingham leverage their hands-on research with children into educational innovations at the Hietzing School and beyond. The Viennese psychoanaly...

Die Psychoanalytikerin Anna Freud ist nicht nur Insidern ein Begriff. Als Dichterin aber kennt sie kaum jemand. Brigitte Spreitzer macht die literarischen Texte von Sigmund Freuds jungster Tochter zum ersten Mal vollstandig zuganglich und liest sie in der Einfuhrung zur Edition als paradigmatische Dokumente der Auseinandersetzung einer jungen Frau aus dem assimilierten judischen Burgertum mit den sozialhistorischen und kulturellen Bedingungen im Wien der Jahrhundertwende. Damit konnen wir sie als Teil eines historischen Prozesses begreifen, der durch das Ringen von Frauen um Zutritt zu Kultur, Bildung und Wissen gekennzeichnet ist. Verbindungslinien von Psychoanalyse, Konstruktionen von Weiblichkeit und individuellem Frauenleben werden im Moment des Entstehens sichtbar.
This original book gives a timely exploration of the importance of sibling relationships from a multi-disciplinary perspective. It presents for the first time an account of the work on brothers and sisters by Sigmund Freud, Melanie Klein and Anna Freud, whose pioneering and vital work on sibling issues has not been systematically examined before. It also explores the important contributions to our understanding of siblings from developmental research, systemic therapy and attachment theory. Through infant observation and clinical work with children and young people, the book reveals the ways in which sibling relationships can be illuminated by these different perspectives. The book aims to stress the importance of multi-disciplinary thinking and to encourage further an interface between psychoanalytic thinking and other disciplines. It is a must for clinicians and other professionals working with children and families and of interest too to the general reader.
Die Befassung mit Affekten, Gefühlen und Emotionen nimmt in der Psychoanalytischen Pädagogik einen zentralen Stellenwert ein. Sie wird genährt durch die Theoriebildung der Psychoanalyse sowie angrenzender Disziplinen und leistet einen wichtigen Beitrag für das Verstehen pädagogischer Phänomene. In diesem Sinn setzt sich der Sammelband aus konzeptueller, forschungsmethodischer sowie professionalisierungstheoretischer Perspektive mit diesem Themenfeld auseinander.
