Although honored colleague,

I am much pleased with your letter, and the news that Bleuler you converted me to express special thanks. That you extend not quite your appreciation of my psychology my views on the question of hysteria and sexuality, that I had long suspected based on your written; I do not, however, waive the expectation that over the years you approach me more than you can hold for now. You must have just learned of your beautiful analysis of a case of obsessional neurosis ⁽¹⁾ knows how the sexual component to hide, and what it is capable, Once unveiled, to provide for the understanding and treatment. I continue to hope that this part of my discoveries will prove the most important.

I will not respond to the attack of Aschaffenburg, for reasons of principle, and also because of the lack of kindness which he personally testifies. I would judge naturally a little more severely than you. I do not find there that nonsense and ignorance more enviable state of things in which he wears his judgment. He continues to fight hypnosis, abandoned a decade, shows no understanding of the symbolism the simplest (see his note) ⁽²⁾, the meaning of which linguists and folklorists could enlighten, if he does not accept this lesson I. What drives, like so many other "authorities", is of course the tendency to repress the sexual, this factor annoying and frowned upon in polite society. Two worlds fighting there, and that little is held within life there will soon be no doubt as to who decline and those who will be victorious. Of course I expect myself to many battles yet, and considering my age (The), I can not believe I see the end. But my students, I hope, will present, and I also hope that those who manage, for the love of the truth, to overcome internal resistance, happy to count among my students and their thoughts extirperont remnants of hesitation. I do not know Aschaffenburg also, but after this test I designed a very poor opinion of him.

The book you advertise on dem. praecox is impatiently awaited me-ment. Let me say that work like yours and those of Bleuler give me satisfaction every time, necessary eventually anyway, for not being accomplished quite unheard work so hard in my life.

Your devoted and respectful colleague.

My "transfer" should completely fill the gap in the mechanism of healing (your personal report).

Honored Professor!

Receive the most dedicated my thanks for your kind sending. This collection of various small your written ⁽²⁾ should be highly welcome anyone who wants to assimilate quickly and thoroughly your view. Hopefully in the future will increase your scientific community constantly, despite the attacks that‘Aschaffenburg (3), applauded by the authorities, has brought to your teaching, we would almost say to your person. What is sad in these attacks, this is only my opinion Aschaffenburg clings to things outside, while the merits of your teaching are in the psychological, psychiatrists and psychologists modern observance dominate too little. I recently exchanged a lively correspondence ⁽⁴⁾ with Aschaffenburg about your education, and I have defended the view aforesaid, with which, honored Professor, you are perhaps not entirely agree. What I can estimate the range, and made us move here on psychopathology, what are your views psychological, while the genesis and treatment of hysteria are still, given the paucity of our material hysterical, quite far from my mind; that is to say, I think your treatment based not only on the effects of abreaction, but also some personal relationships ⁽⁵⁾, and the genesis of hysteria seems to be, of predominantly but not exclusively, sexual. I see the same attitude towards your theory of sexuality. Aschaffenburg, by relying exclusively on these delicate theoretical issues, forget the main, your psychology, where it is certain that one day psychiatry derive a profit inexhaustible. I hope soon to send you a little book ⁽⁶⁾ in which I consider your point of view, dementia praecox and psychology. I also published the first case ⁽⁷⁾ where I made Bleuler ⁽⁸⁾ attention to the existence of your principles, which still faced stiff resistance on his part. But as you know, Bleuler is now absolutely converted.

With the expression of my respect

your grateful and devoted

Under the direct influence of the psychoanalytic method, he gave important contributions to the understanding of autism and ambivalence.

My honored colleague,

My heartfelt thanks for sending your Diagnostic Studies Association², by whose impatience I had acquired. This is of course your last job, "Psychology and experience of association", that made me the greatest pleasure, since, relying on experience, you said that I did not say anything as true of hitherto unexplored areas of our discipline. I expect that you will certainly still often led me to confirm, and I find so readily corrected.

Yours colleague,

D^r Freud.
