Psychoanalysis And The Humanities
First published in 1996. Written by distinguished artists and scholars with psychoanalytic training, this seminal collection of essays spans the humanities-painting, sculpture, literature, history, anthropology, and philosophy-illustrating how psychoanalytic thinking can powerfully enhance these disciplines. The essayists address a question first posed by Freud in his 1919 article, Should Psychoanalysis Be Taught at the University? With a resounding Yes, they underline the intellectual enrichment to be gained from the application of the psychoanalytic method to humanistic disciplines and, conversely, the need for contemporary psychoanalysts to acquire the kind of historical and classical education taken for granted by their counterparts earlier in this century.

The Later Tudors
The Later Tudors is an authoritative and comprehensive study of England between the accession of Edward VI and the death of Elizabeth I--a turbulent period of conflict amongst European nations, and between warring Catholics and Protestants. These internal and external struggles created anxiety in England, but by the end of Elizabeth's reign the nation had achieved a remarkable sense of political and religious identity. Penry Williams combines the political, religious and economic history of the nation with a broader analysis of English society, family relations, and culture, in order to explain the workings and development of the English state. The result is an incisive and wide-ranging analysis that culminates in an assessment of England's part in the shaping of the New World.
