Literary aspects of Freud’s writings, psychoanalytic writing by other authors, and analysands’ memoirs

In the context of her work on the literary aspects of Freud’s writings, psychoanalytic writing by other authors, and analysands’ memoirs, Dr. Tzur Mahalel is currently broadening her research on psychoanalysis and German philosophy, especially focussing on the relation between the writings of Sigmund Freud and Walter Benjamin. During the same time period, these two distinguished intellectuals wrote on history and historicity from different points of view, yet their ideas suggest an intriguing dialectic affinity.

Research Projects:

1. “Are We Dead?”: Time in H. D.’s Dialogue with Freud
2. Georges Perec’s Zeit-Raum: Creating a Space of Remembrance
