By examining the gaze of horses in art, the book raises provocative questions about free will, identity, and the nature of humanity. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a truly interdisciplinary work that combines the author's formidable erudition in classics, philosophy, literature and literary criticism, film studies, art history, and theology with his unique psychoanalytic sensibility. Offering profound meditations on the paintings that he observes so keenly, Civitarese illuminates how these artistic representations reveal the tensions between our instinctual drives and the illusion of self-control. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis narrative, enriched by personal reflections and emotional resonance with the artworks, gives us a fresh and thought-provoking exploration of art, psychology, and the timeless question of what it means to be human.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eGiuseppe Civitarese\u003c\/b\u003e, MD, PhD, is a psychiatrist and training and supervising analyst (SPI, APsaA, IPA) in Pavia, Italy.
