Abstract | This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters in this book. The book engages with case studies as sites of interdisciplinary negotiation, transnational exchange, and influence, exploring the effects of larger historical and geopolitical forces such as war, migration, and internationalization on a genre pivotal to so many disciplinary and knowledge cultures. It discusses the influence of Freudian ideas and psychoanalytic practice and focuses on the dynamic interactions between cases, and knowledge about human subjects for a range of publics. The book presents the human subject into focus, analyzing the complex bond between the case study genre and the knowledge of modern subjects and subjectivities. Just as psychoanalysis has been highly influential in shaping the structure, interpretive possibilities, and dissemination of the case study genre in the context of twentieth-century modernity, so too has the discourse at the heart of psychoanalytic explanation from the time of Sigmund Freud, that of sexuality. |
