The Wolfman and Other Cases

ebook

1 of 1 copy available
When a disturbed young Russian man came to Freud for treatment, the analysis of his childhood neuroses—most notably a dream about wolves outside his bedroom window—eventually revealed a deep-seated trauma. It took more than four years to treat him, and "The Wolfman" became one of Freud's most famous cases. This volume also contains the case histories of a boy's fear of horses and the Ratman's violent fear of rats, as well as the essay "Some Character Types," in which Freud draws on the work of Shakespeare, Ibsen, and Nietzsche to demonstrate different kinds of resistance to therapy. Above all, the case histories show us Freud at work, in his own words.

      The "Wolfman" was among Freud's most famous cases, and here the volume gets what the publisher is calling "the first major new translation in more than 30 years." In addition to the Wolfman, so called because the patient had frequent dreams of wolves, this also contains his notes on the "Ratman," "Little Hans," and other notable patients. The Schreber Case is Freud's analysis of Judge Daniel Schreber's memoir, which determined that the subject was suffering from multiple neuroses.
