Beyond the Myths: Mother-daughter Relationships in Psychology, History, Literature and Everyday LifePenguin, 1996 - 442 páginas "Invites women to question their own situations, exploring the psychology of mother-daughter relationships through childhood, adolescence and adulthood, and the myths and prejudices that reinforce blame and guilt and prevent change. It gives fresh consideration to the complex roles of fathers in mother-daughter relationships as well, and to the shared experiences of siblings, and suggests practical ways of healing rifts and building better relationships. Dr. Shelley Phillips is a strong advocate of the power of individuals to be their own therapists. Reaching beyond psychology and history, she explores the insights of classic and contemporary fiction, from Jane Austen and the Brontës to Virginia Woolf, Colette and Doris Lessing. Her interpretations illustrate that mother-daughter conflict is not only necessary but fruitful as an impetus to the creation of our own autonomy and individuality"-- |
