From Dusting to Abjaya: A Psychoanalytic Journey

This chapter explores the evolution of psychoanalytic concepts, especially the shift from 'dusting' to 'Abjaya Ak', influenced by figures like Freud and Heidegger.

The discussion highlights how contemporary interpretations, like 'main character syndrome', can reflect deeper psychological needs and their existential implications.
