Wir sind gerne für Sie daIn Freud's Lost Chord, Dan Sapen explores what it means for the development of depth psychology that, as Charles Rycroft wrote, particularly of Freud, "One cannot help regretting that none of the pioneers of the unconscious thought naturally in auditory terms"; and, that more than 100 years later, jazz has seldom ever even been mentioned in a psychoanalytic context. Music is a holistic synthesis of bodily, communicative, intersubjective, imagistic psychic functions, which resist reduction to linguistic interpretation, and as such fall largely outside the hermeneutic and clinical tools belonging to psychoanalysis. However, the dimensions of psychological life exemplified by music are not really missing - C.G. Jung and a number of post-Freudian writers have integrated them, often without intending to write about music per se at all, in such as way as to illuminate Freud's own original, tragic, and constantly mutating struggle to capture the whole of psychic repertoire in a single theory. Using the example of some seminal works of improvisatory jazz by Miles Davis and John Coltrane, as well as the oceanic and spiritual aspects of psychological life, the author explores how the subsequent decades of work, through tumultuous and internecine battles between psychoanalytic schools of thought, and between most of these schools and C.G Jung's Analytical Psychology, have still given voice to the innate musicality of the psyche, an evolution very much still in progress.
