Dear Professor,

I hope Anna does well go home now, because I doubt that you do not believe in safety in England. But she struggled to make the best decision, and she was very brave throughout this crisis.

It will give you the new English, there is no need that I write. Personally, I believe my duty is to remain at my post, and continue to exert, rather than engage. This also has the advantage that I can financially support our friends in Vienna (Rank, etc.), that the war will perhaps necessary; I wanted to send money now, but it is impossible to obtain Austrian banknotes in London.

I'm terribly excited to hear from you and our friends, and hope that you will try to communicate via Bjerre, Van Emden, Pfister or Assagioli. I'll soon see Holland Van Emden and learn what he knows.

With any affection

your faithful and devoted Jones.

Dear Doctor

Very surprised by your new. But Prague is also very far now. We are in Vienna since the 5 this month, two son with us, who are registered as auxiliary. Martin, which lies to the tribunal in Salzburg, is likely to volunteer and hope it will be accepted despite the super-arbitration¹. My little girl is in England, we have established a telegraphic communication with her via Holland. D’Abraham, despite its promise, not a line.

Sincerely Your Freud

Dear Professor Freud,

I wonder if you received my letter a week ago ? This is for everyone a time of concern that communication difficulties make it doubly difficult. I will send this letter in triplicate, in the hope that at least you reach. I have not seen your daughter since my last letter, but I heard from her and her friend. It sounds great and serene, and said nothing of returning to Austria, but that was before the worst news of the war General. If necessary it fits, I could certainly extend to the Austrian border, because there are several ways to go about, and it will be possible throughout the war; but I do not know if train travel is authorized in Austria, or how long the traffic will be suspended for the needs of the army, Thirty or example from Zurich, I await your instructions on this point, as on other, but in the meantime please be assured that your daughter is in good hands and she has many friends in England. She is in excellent health ⁽¹⁾.

A letter from Ferenczi tells me he must join the Hussars, but qual-ity of physician. A postcard Rank said nothing of the war. You can imagine how much I look forward to hearing from you, and what happens. Your son have to go under the flags, and how many of our friends are in Vienna- they forced ?

There was little enthusiasm in England. We prejudices against Germany and we do not love Russia, but the fear of the last touches us more closely than the first ⁽²⁾, who wait many years to. Austria is very popular for putting everyone in trouble, but his attitude toward risk slave is fairly well understood. No doubt here, however, Germany and Austria do crush; too much play against them. The whole thing is quite Greek, an irresistible fate precipitating nations into wars that no one is looking, and that can only lead to a general catastrophe. Personally, I am especially upset that America has to benefit both the loss of Europe.

Loe was able to recover Trottie and get him out of fraud, but not without difficulties and hardships untold. She says it is by far the worst experience she ever made in her life. It also goes well we can expect, and has a comfortable home (that her aunt). Trottie almost died, but slowly recovering. Loe buys large quantities of morphine to ship to foreign armies, because when the supply of morphine to be dried, we do not deliver to those who are likely to recover, while desperate cases will die in pain. Is not she wonderful ?

Unfortunately, Jung's lecture in London was a success, McDougall and was so impressed that he will be analyzed by him. I have not heard his communication, but I read, because it was given to me as editor of Journal of Abnormal Psychology. It is a jumble of confused thoughts, diluted with platitudes ; ioint following sample page. The only progress is that a new word, "Horme", for Libido, and "prospective psychology" for Ps-A. as he conceives ⁽³⁾.

A great calm reigns in London, it would be impossible to distinguish from other eras, was the press. Grey announced yesterday that we would intervene if Germany violated the neutrality of Belgium or the German fleet attack undefended coasts of France ⁽⁴⁾. We are very reluctant here to the idea of ​​being dragged into a war whose stakes are so far, but our protective attitude towards France is an important factor that can play.

I fervently hope to receive some news from you soon, and they are as good as possible. No doubt you will stay for some time in Carlsbad, even if you the opportunity to return to Vienna.

your always thoughtful

Ernest Jones.

2. "Last" and "first" are surrounded with pen and attached by a line, arrows indicating the need to transpose the two words.

3. This is to avoid any misunderstanding that Jung began to use the word hormé, derived from the Greek, in its English texts ; publications in German, preserves the Libido; see Jung (1915). He also uses the expression "understanding prospective", he opposes what he calls the "retrospective understanding" of Freud (p. 181). [N.d.T. ; understanding of the concept of Jung, cf. C. G. Young, Correspondence, 1906-1940, trad. J. Rigal et F. Périgaut, Paris, Albin Michel, 1992, p. 65-67.]

Dear Professor,

Waiting to join the Austrian army, I must send you my most cordial greetings in this grave hour. All wishes, your, your loved ones, all of us –

Carlsbad, 2.8.14.

Cher ami,

Your letter of today (that of 31.7) is overwhelmed, That is why I am writing again to Berlin. Thank you for your promise to give me plenty of your new, and I will endeavor to do so. We will stay here so probably another week ; go to Vienna during mobilization is not possible; about to go to Munich, it does not matter. Our son Ernst¹, the remainder, in Salzburg with his brother Martin ², and he probably will not return for the first time.

We may rid our mind all the problems of Congress, etc. The general attention is otherwise. When I write, we can consider that the great war is a thing acquired; I'd heart with fighters, if I did not know that England is on the wrong side.

I would like to develop a good subject that began to torment me, but I'm still too tight, too distracted, I must wait for something definitive, well done. For the time being, I'm embarrassed to try again in the beautiful Carlsbad, with my nice wife, all the refinements of cure, while the world is similarly shaken. In Vienna it is cooked over white bread; thing can- be more worrying : savings banks and banks do not refund deposits beyond 200 crowns. We can see how much you can spend money in daily life.

We can fall, we do not go out of the world [Fall out of the world we can not] ³ : this is the ultimate insurance.

I hope you arrived safely with yours and your military obligations do not stray too far from home. Receive, from a distance, my cordial handshake.

Your faithful

Freud.

Dear Professor,

I will answer immediately. Here, we are not cur-rent anything. It is possible that we leave today or tomorrow. Because there are many signs that suggest the mobilization tomorrow or Sunday. En cas de guerre, it is possible that we stay here. We can do little other travel plans. So we wait probably Berlin. En cas de guerre, also, I can not get away from, since I am assigned to health service ⁽¹⁾. Without this, I did, me either, no obligation.

Our station is already half depopulated, enabled officers and soldiers on leave have been recalled. In case you séjourneriez Munich would not be impossible to meet; but who knows?

It is expected still no power trigger war, but the situation did not look less serious. Newspapers are allowed to publish only half of what they know.

All I can promise you today is to give you my new regular. Your letter bearing the stamp of 3o is still very fast arrival. I entrust this letter best wishes that I make for all of us.

I look forward to your new work with as much impatience as possible at the moment!

Well with my cordial greetings.

Abraham your.

Have you not received my last letter?

Budapest, the 31 July 1914 (afternoon)

Dear Professor,

As the post probably will not work tomorrow (the announcement of general mobilization came here at the moment |1]), I hasten to give you a brief news.

If the above information is confirmed, I will join, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, the 7^and regiment of the Territorial Army - Honved Hussars – as a medical reserve.

The holiday trip is abandoned. (Even if I do not join the regiment, I will stay here as a hospital physician.)

It will be difficult to manage by the business of writing, due to the disruption of rail traffic and postal. I think Rank will soon be returned home ⁽²⁾. For the time being, I have no contact with him.

Here, emotion is at its peak (the news of the Russian intervention).

Madame G. returned from his summer residence - like everyone else also.

The Platonic idea as substrate transfer is tasty ⁽³⁾. It seems that Jung has also been proposed as the word Imago quite disembodied.

Cordial greetings to all, Carlsbad et à à Seis ⁽⁴⁾,

1. The 28 July, Austria-Hungary declares war on Serbia. The 29 July, is the partial mobilization in Russia, protecting country of Serbia. General mobilization in Austria-Hungary, condoned by the staff and signed by the German Emperor, Vienna is announced on the morning of 31 July.

2. Rank went on vacation in Tyrol, the 29 July ; He then spent a fortnight in Semmering, to return to Vienna 15 August (Letter from Freud to Rank 12 August 1914, unpublished correspondence, archives J. Dupont).

3. The 27 July 1914, Jones wrote to Freud : "I had, last week, a long conversation with Mrs.. Eder, who just a month of analysis with Jung […] You may be interested to know the last date for method transfer process. The patient overcome the learning that is not really in love with the analyst, but it is currently, first, struggling to understand a Universal Idea (with capital letters) the Platonic sense : whereafter, what appears to be the transfer may well stay ". Freud has copied this passage for Abraham (Freud/Abraham, Correspondence, on. cit., letter 29 VII 1914, p. 191-192) and also expressed Ferenczi, it seems.

4. Place in South Tyrol where Freud had intended to go after his stay in Karlsbad.
