This volume investigates the complex intellectual intersection between Freudian psychoanalytic theory and the historical, cultural, and philosophical landscape of China. Edited by Tao Jiang and Philip J. Ivanhoe, the collection brings together scholars from diverse disciplines to examine how Western psychoanalytic concepts have been received, adapted, and critiqued within Chinese contexts. The contributors utilize a multidisciplinary framework, drawing upon historical records, literary analysis, and comparative philosophy to assess the compatibility and friction between Freudian models and traditional Chinese thought.
