CHAPTER

Analyzing Freud and Leotard's Perspectives on Sterilization

In this chapter, they discuss Freud and Lyotard's perspectives on sterilization in relation to Hellenic and Lydian societies. They explore how Freud and Leotard view the sterilization of the genitals as a way to cure hysteric bodies, while the Hellenic society focuses on penises and the Lydians focus on the sterilization of the womb. They also touch upon Leotard's belief that the Lydians are closer to capitalism and question whether Leotard is vindicating Freud's early focus on libido.
