psych & literature

[Gary Klatsky]

I have a couple of friends who teach in the English department. Based on my conversations with them there seems to be a significant amount of psychoanalysis of literature. Although Freud has lost favor among psychologists, he is still a mainstay in Literature.   Gary J.

Her question: "How would I combine a Ph.D in English literature with one in psychology?  What ways could they be combined professionally, and how do I begin?" peace, K Kitty K.
