Bøker av Tony Thwaites

Presents an introductory guide to Freud and brings together: an overview of Freud's work which enables the reader to see quickly where, and in which texts, Freud develops his main ideas; and a guide to reading Freud, and to what can be done with the complexities of his texts.

It adopts a practical and versatile approach to cultural analysis, beginning not with an abstract body of theory but with a number of examples of social sign use which are examined critically using basic semiotic terms and concepts to build up the reader's analytic vocabulary in a practical way.
