Περιγραφή για Freud's Patients: A Book of Lives Mikkel Borch-Jacobsen Reaktion Books

Everyone knows the characters described by Freud in his case histories: \'Dora\', the \'Rat Man\', the \'Wolf Man\'. But what do we know of the people, the lives behind these famous pseudonyms: Ida Bauer, Ernst Lanzer, Sergius Pankejeff? Do we know the circumstances that led them to Freud\'s consulting-room, or how they fared - how they really fared - following their treatments? And what of those patients about whom Freud wrote nothing, or very little: Pauline Silberstein, who threw herself from the fourth floor of her analyst\'s building; Elfriede Hirschfeld, Freud\'s \'grand-patient\' and \'chief tormentor\'; the fashionable architect Karl Mayreder; the psychotic millionaire Carl Liebmann; and so many others? In an absorbing sequence of portraits, Mikkel Borch-Jacobsen offers the stories of these men and women - some comic, many tragic, all of them deeply moving. In total, thirty-eight lives tell us as much about Freud\'s clinical practice as his celebrated case studies, revealing too a darker and more complex Freud than is usually portrayed: the doctor as his patients, their friends and their families saw him.
