Flügel was born in Liverpool on 13 June 1884, to a German father and English mother.[1]
Careeredit
Flügel's book Psychoanalytic Study of the Family (1921) was acclaimed by Eric Berne for its insights into the Oedipus complex.[2] He also published Men and their Motives (1934) and The Psychology of Clothes (1930),[3] the latter continuing to influence thinking on the subject into the 21st century.[4]
In Man, Morals and Society (1945), Flugel charted a movement from egocentrism to social awareness by way of what he saw as a hierarchy of expanding loyalties.[5] Reaching back to his old mentor, he also highlighted “the distinction that McDougall has sometimes made between an 'ideal', which is little more than an intellectual assent to a moral proposition, and a 'sentiment', which involves a real mobilisation”.[6]
Personal lifeedit
In 1913 Flügel married Ingeborg Klingberg, who also became a psychoanalyst. They had one daughter. Flügel died in London in 1955.
