Description:	This course examines the development of Freud's thought through an in-depth study of his major theoretical works and briefly explores his legacy in post-Freudian ego psychology. From this perspective, the student will begin to build the foundation upon which later developments in psychoanalytic theory can be best understood.
Learning Goals:	As psychologists we want to think about the empirical evidence underlying our psychodynamic concepts, to think about the doubt expressed about Freudian and other psychoanalytic ideas and the therapy informed by them to other cultures (and even to underprivileged populations in our own culture) and to think about the data that suggests that most people do not come for psychological help prepared to spend several years and more than a single session per week in psychotherapy.It is expected that students will gain an understanding of:(a.) the basic tenants of Freud’s psychoanalytic system of psychology, *The learning goals displayed here are those for one section of this course as offered in a recent semester, and are provided for the purpose of information only. The exact learning goals for each course section in a specific semester will be stated on the syllabus distributed at the start of the semester, and may differ in wording and emphasis from those shown here.
