Produktbeschreibungen
From Booklist
Heinz Kohut was a psychoanalyst who changed the field into its modern form as we understand it today. Born into a middle-class Jewish family in Vienna in the early part of the last century, Kohut quickly showed promise as a gifted intellectual. He finished his university studies during the Anschluss and was barely allowed to take his final exams (being a Jew) that qualified him to be an M.D. He fled to the U.S. in 1939, and in the years after World War II he changed the face of psychoanalysis. While working with the Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis, he rose to prominence and eventually became the most prestigious analyst in the country, serving as president of the American Psychoanalytic Association. He recognized the limits of classical psychoanalysis and sought to put a more humanistic face on it. He struggled with this until his death in 1981. He could be stubborn and private and he could confound his closest friends, but the legacy he left with the field of psychoanalysis in the U.S. is legendary. Michael Spinella

From Library Journal
Historian and psychoanalyst Strozier (Lincoln's Quest for Union) knew Chicago analyst Heinz Kohut (1913-81) at the end of his life and is carrying on his work. One of the most important American analysts, Kohut became the leader of a less authoritarian and more compassionate school of psychoanalysis known as self-psychology, now a major force in humanizing Freudian theory and practice. The author recounts the gripping, moving, and instructive story of this driven, creative, cultured intellectual, who was much respected as a teacher and therapist but disliked for his arrogance. Healing, music, courage, religion, art, charisma, rage, and death are some of the topics covered in this splendid biography. Too important to leave to professionals, this accessible work is highly recommended for all libraries.DE. James Lieberman, George Washington Univ. Sch. of Medicine, Washington, DC

a deep drink from an unusual well.
22. August 2001
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
A biography of Heinz Kohut who was at the center of the 20th century American psychoanalytic movement. After the Nazis took over Vienna he fled to Chicago, where he spent the rest of his life & is now remembered as the founder of "self psychology."
That said: you have got to have an appetite for exploration into the deep recesses of our psychology & the ways we live our lives.
This biography will appeal to those who have lived through the same era as Heinz Kohut & who have encountered the less authoritarian & more compassionate school of psychoanalysis now known as self-psychology which made major changes in reformatting the revered Freudian theory & practice.
A deep drink from an unusual well - well-written, if somewhat dense in places. Well worth it, however, if you are at all interested in the signs of intelligent life during America's post WWII years which led up to the human potential movement.
I'm amazed that I read it because my mind was boggled by the subject & the author! What did I learn? Zounds - it'll take me years to process a fraction of what has been brought to the surface!

180 N. Michigan Avenue redux
23. Mai 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
For those who knew in vivo many of the characters forming the cast of this epic, reading the book would have an illusory experience of deja vu.
Kohut and many of the members of the Institute for Psychoanalysis in Chicago had the courage to launch a new system that shook the freudian orthodoxy in its very foundations --- while in so doing managing to enrich this, until then, fading system.
I highly recommend this biography as a fair and just assessment of the man (and of the men and women that formed his inner circle) and of his grasp on narcissim and empathy.
Kudos to Strozier!

Kohut and Judaism
26. August 2009
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
As an analyst, can one espouse a therapeutic modality (self-psychology) if the founder is an individual clearly in conflict and denial, as Kohut was, vis-a-vis his Judaism? My answer is no! Even though he was elected president of the American Psychoanalytic Association, the widespread opinion was that he suffered a narcissitic personality disorder. His narcissistic rage was clearly most evident in his projecting of total hatred onto anything remotely connected with his Jewishness. Two of the most telling incidents in Strozier's book is when Kohut went to lunch in a kosher delicatessen with Paul Ornstein, one of his disciples(with a rabbinic background), whose analyst wife is an Auschwitz survivor. Kohut purposely ordered a ham and cheese sandwich with a glass of milk, which had the effect of humiliating not only the waiter, but both Ornsteins. Is this an individual whose philosophy one wants to follow? It was reported in Martin Bergmann and Milton Jucovy's book "Generations of the Holocaust" that Kohut's treatment of his patient, Mr. A, who had to flee the Nazis in Germany, only focussed on the patient's structural deficit. Kohut saw no connection between the child being a Holocaust survivor and his psychopathology. Is this characteristic of the empathy so widely touted as being practiced by "self-psychology"? Otherwise, Strozier's biography is interesting, although it gets bogged down in theoretical dogma, and could have used some tighter editing of chapters.
