Erik H. Erikson. A Life's Work

Description

Using archival materials and newer footage, this program introduces students to the rich wisdom of Erik H. Erikson. Best known for his identification of the eight stages of the life cycle, Erikson spent a lifetime observing and studying the way in which the interplay of genetics, cultural influences, and unique experiences produces individual human lives. The video combines biographical information about Erikson with his theoretical proposals to give viewers an understanding of the relationship between the life experience of a theorist and the work that he produced. Narrated by Erikson's colleague Margaret Brenman-Gibson and Ruthie Mickles.
