Description
A Case of Hysteria (Dora) by Sigmund Freud is a landmark work that offers rare insight into the author's approach to psychoanalysis. This new translation, freshly rendered in English, brings together Freud's studies on hysteria and his emerging theory of dream-interpretation with early insights into human sexuality. As Dora undergoes psychoanalysis, Freud uncovers a complex family history marked by competing narratives and deep-seated emotional conflicts. The narrative is gripping and thought-provoking, shedding light on the author's own biases and the societal attitudes of turn-of-the-century Vienna. This edition features explanatory notes that illuminate Freud's use of literary allusions and provides an up-to-date bibliography for further exploration.
