Time and timelessness are fundamental principles of psychoanalysis yet Freud does not present a consolidated theory of temporality. She traces a careful temporal trail through Freud’s published works and his daunting Nachlass, and provides a compelling reason as to why Freud kept his remarkable thoughts about time to himself.

Time and timelessness are fundamental principles of psychoanalysis yet Freud does not present a consolidated theory of temporality. In this book Kelly Noel-Smith pieces together Freud's scattered 'hints' and 'suspicions' about time and its negative, timelessness. She traces a careful temporal trail through Freud’s published works and his daunting Nachlass, and provides a compelling reason as to why Freud kept his remarkable thoughts about time to himself.

Kelly Noel-Smith, a philosophy graduate, has spent more than a decade studying Freud, first at the Tavistock (where she published a paper on Freud and Kant) and then at Birkbeck College, University of London, UK, where she completed a PhD on Freud and the ancient Greek influence under the supervision of Professor Stephen Frosh.
