Eric Rhode (born 10 May 1934) is a British writer on traditional cosmology and psychoanalysis.
Life and work
After Rhode had worked as a critic, author and broadcaster on film and the arts, he undertook a personal psychoanalysis with
ethnographic
ritual, and philosophy.
As an undergraduate, Rhode directed plays at the
The Financial Times, and on psychoanalytic topics for New Society and The Times Literary Supplement. During this period, Rhode wrote Tower of Babel (a collection of writing on the cinema) and also The History of the Cinema from its origins to 1970 for Penguin Books. He edited A game that must be lost, the posthumous papers by Adrian Stokes on psychoanalysis and art, and hosted a 70-minute programme on Adrian Stokes for BBC Radio 3
.
After qualifying as a child psychotherapist, Rhode worked in the
post-partum psychosis and their babies, but also addressed the historical and cultural evolution of attitudes towards pregnancy and childbirth and the psychiatric theories they inspired. His later books extend into aspects of traditional cosmology
. He is married to the child psychotherapist Maria Rhode and lives in London.
