Welcome to the Psychoanalytic Electronic Publishing Website and Digital Archive

 

A1v12  NOW RELEASED

New Journals released late January 2013 for A1v12:

Coming in the near future we will be bringing on Psyche (1947-2011), the premiere German psychoanalytic journal.

The PEP Journals in the Archive will be updated for full text view with subscription through 2009 for most journals and 2007 for American Imago.

And 27 new books now added! As just a sampling, PEP is featuring some of the works of Donald Meltzer, which include The Psychoanalytic Process, Kleinian Development, Sexual States of Mind, Explorations in Autism and more. Also featured are Martha Harris and Esther Bick and their work on the Tavistock Model and M. Harris Williams on the post-Kleinian model of mind. See Books for the whole list.

Feature Additions!  

These features add to PEP’s new and improved Mach III Enhanced Search Engine, enhanced by citation capacity, statistics of most cited and the most read PEP articles, and a powerful glossary of psychoanalytic terms integrated from four key Psychoanalytic Glossaries.


PEP is a digital archive of many of the major works of psychoanalysis. PEP Archive 1 version 12 (1871-2009), released in January 2013, contained the complete FULL TEXT of fifty premier psychoanalytic journals, an Update of one year of the Current PEP Archive Content, complete versions of ninety six classic psychoanalytic texts and all twenty-four volumes of the Standard Edition of the Complete Psychological Works of Sigmund Freud, the German Freud Standard Edition, "Gesammelte Werke" and all the included Editorial Notes. Current Content (the past 3 years for most journals) is also available and fully searchable for the PEP Journals, but as per contracts with the publishers, is only available for reading at the abstract level. 


Some very important and helpful search features are available to help you specify and refine searches to make sure you get to the article(s) you are looking for with the greatest efficiency and precision.

The PEP-Web interface optimizes the controls and heading space to give you more room for search results and article text. The new PEP Tab includes a What's New? feature showing new material that's been added, Top 5 Lists of what's popular (most read) and what's most cited by PEP source articles, along with access to the complete ranked statistics, and expanded search criteria to include language and the new statistics, where, for example, you can limit the results to articles which have been cited more than 5 times in the past 10 years. And perhaps most significantly, there's a new glossary of psychoanalytic terms and concepts that can be accessed by clicking on the terms within any article! 

In the PEP Glossary’s initial implementation, in addition to the Language of Psychoanalysis (Laplanche and Pontalis), PEP will be offering three other Glossaries: The Edinburgh International Encyclopaedia of Psychoanalysis (Skelton), Glossary of Psychoanalytic Terms and Concepts (Moore and Fine), and the Dictionary of Kleinian Thoughts (Hinshelwood).  PEP has also included the Glossary of Psychoanalysis in Europe (Junkers), which provides a mapping of each psychoanalytic term across several languages. More glossaries are anticipated to be integrated as PEP obtains the rights.  

PEP Archive 1 spans over 137 publication years and contains the full text of articles whose source ranges from 1871 through 2008. There are approximately 75,000 articles and 8,728 figures and illustrations that originally resided on 1449 volumes with a total of over 650,000 printed pages. In hard copy, the PEP Archive represents a stack of paper more than 213 feet high and weighing over 2.93 tons!

The PEP Archive is always available 24x7 and from any location. 

It is free to browse the archive and to access lists of texts and abstracts, although you require a subscription in order to be able to read complete texts online.
