The document summarizes Toril Moi's analysis of Freud's case study of "Dora". Moi argues that Freud's treatment of Dora was a failure due to his patriarchal beliefs and alliance with the men who oppressed Dora. Dora's hysteria can be seen as a protest against the patriarchal society she lived in. Freud was obsessed with interpreting Dora's case through his own biases, failing to recognize how her symptoms stemmed from real abuse rather than imagined desires. His epistemology viewed women only as objects to be known by men, rather than subjects with their own knowledge and agency.
