Review: Leonardo Da Vinci: A Study in Psychosexuality

Leonardo Da Vinci: A Study in Psychosexuality Leonardo Da Vinci: A Study in Psychosexuality by Sigmund Freud
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Ah, Freud - I admire the chutzpah of reaching out across the centuries to psychoanalyze Da Vinci. In a way, it is easy. All is rooted in sexuality, so that premise is already laid. A lengthy introduction by a convinced psychiatrist explains that Freud could draw all on secxuality because he extended the definition of sexualtiy so broadly .. that it meant nothing? Basically it seems the argument hear for Freud undercut Freud. And then, hey, Freud - sometimes a vulture's tail is just bird feathers.
