Freud and Tolstoy on Narcissism, Jealousy, and Love (Patreon)

Would Anna fit a textbook Freudian case of narcissism? 

What about Vronsky?

Here are the two books I was working from:

• Beyond the Pleasure Principle 
• Sexuality and the Psychology of Love 

And here's Freud:

We love one or other of the following:

1) Narcissistic  type:

a) what we ourselves are,

b) what we ourselves were,

c) what we would like to become,

d) a person who was once part of our own self.

2) Imitative type:

a) the woman who feeds us,

b) the man who protects us,

and the many surrogates who take their place.
