Freudian Research Seminar - The Consoling Eidolon
This Freudian Research Seminar explores "The Consoling Eidolon," examining how idealized mental images or phantom figures—such as remembered loved ones or wish-fulfilling fantasies—serve psychological comforting functions, drawing on Freudian theory regarding mourning, loss, and the psyche's construction of consoling inner representations.
