What does the princess want? Marie Bonaparte between Literature, Biology and Psychoanalysis

Lecture by Rémy Amouroux

The great-grandniece of Napoleon Bonaparte was also a student of Freud (she aided his escape from the Nazis) and even after her marriage to Prince George of Greece and Denmark refused to give up her work in psychoanalytical studies.

In this talk at the Freud Museum, Vienna, Rémy Amouroux will describe her role in the psychoanalytic movement, but also her connection with the scientific and literary circles. Placing her in the context of the cultural climate in which she evolved, he will focus on her psychoanalytic work about female sexuality and illustrate how and why is it connected with biological issues.
