Psychoanalysis – which can hardly be spoken of in the singular – currently presents itself as an integrative discipline that is at the same time fragmented and at times standardising in schools: It is a lively and diverse field of research and clinical practice. Today, theoretical approaches are combined with current medical and neuroscientific approaches and psychoanalytic treatments are empirically researched. Psychoanalysis is also influenced by feminist criticism and by numerous discourses in the humanities and cultural studies, as well as by the various cultural contexts in which it is embedded as an international movement.
Sigmund Freud Museum
Vienna IX, Berggasse 19. This is the address where Sigmund Freud lived and worked for 47 years until he was forced to flee from the Nazi regime in 1938. In 1971 , the Sigmund Freud Museum was founded here, and after extensive renovation and expansion reopened in 2020. Three permanent exhibitions in Freud’s former living and office rooms, an art presentation in the Showroom Berggasse 19 as well as special exhibitions present Freud’s multi-layered cultural legacy: they are dedicated to his life and work, the development of psychoanalysis in theory and practice, and its importance for the fields of society, science, and art. The history of the house at Berggasse 19 and the fates of its occupants are also brought into focus.
