Teaching Freud amid debate in religious studies

Edited by Diane Jonte-Pace, this collection treats Freud not simply as a foundational figure but as a contested presence in the study of religion. Fourteen scholars of religion and psychoanalysis examine how classroom teaching can address the debates around his ideas on unconscious fantasy, fear, desire, and religious practice. Alongside accounts of courses on Freud and religion, the volume presents pedagogical approaches for engaging criticism, controversy, and student resistance. The emphasis falls on teaching methods and disciplinary conversation, making the book a record of how instructors frame Freud’s continuing, disputed place in religious studies.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Students and scholars of religion interested in Freud’s influence on the field
  • Instructors seeking approaches to teaching contested theorists
  • Readers interested in psychoanalysis, religion, and classroom pedagogy

Book overview

As one of the first theorists to explore the unconscious fantasies, fears, and desires underlying religious ideas and practices, Freud con be considered one of the grandparents of the field of Religious Studies. Yet his legacy is deeply contested. How can Freud be taught in a climate of critique and controversy? The fourteen contributors to this volume, all recognized scholars of religion and psychoanalysis, describe how they address Freud's contested legacy; they "teach the debates." They go on to describe their courses on Freud and religion, their innovative pedagogical practices, and the creative ways they work with resistance.
