Discussing the late 1940s and the portrayal of psychoanalysis in popular culture, Buhle writes, “Psychoanalysts themselves contributed to the processes of popularization. Several prominent analysts, such as New York’s A.A. Brill and Gregory Zilboorg, literally served the entertainment industry by building their clientele from its stars” (pg. 168). Further, “Psychoanalysis walked hand in hand with mass culture through its Golden Age. Its celebrity among intellectuals not only accompanied but nourished the rapid expansion of commercialized mass media” (pg. 169). Examining the status of psychoanalysis in the immediate postwar years, Buhle writes, “Much of the glory of psychoanalysis arose from its enhanced professional standing” (pg. 170). She links this with postwar antifeminism, writing, “At a time when white middle-class wives and mothers constituted the fastest-growing sector of the labor market, thereby speeding the long trend toward the ‘two-income family,’ psychoanalysts were advising women to return home and to occupy their important but subordinate position in the patriarchal family. Rather than struggle for equality in the marketplace, women should seek their emotional salvation by following out their reproductive destinies” (pg. 173). Psychoanalysts further argued that women in the workplace would affect the healthy sexual development of children (pg. 191). ( )
