Lou Andreas-Salomé, The Audacity to be Free

  • Michael McAndrew Colorado Analytic Forum

Abstract


The tug of war between love and logic in the discipline of psychoanalysis is nearly as old as the Freudian field itself; and is still heard today in the utterances of our analysands. “I love him, but I know he’s no good for me”. “Then why did you go back to him?” “...good question”. This question of love and its logics are at the heart of writer and director Cordula Kablit-Post’s 2016 film Lou Andreas-Salome: The Audacity to be Free.
