Sigmund Freud and The Forsyth Case uses newly discovered primary
sources to investigate one of Sigmund Freud's most mysterious
clinical experiences, the Forsyth case. Maria Pierri begins with a
preliminary illustration of the case, its historical context, and
how it connects to Freud's interests in 'thought-transmission', or
telepathy. Sigmund Freud and The Forsyth Case details Pierri's
attempts to recover the lost original case notes, which are
published here for the first time, to identify the patient involved
and to set the case into the broader frame of Freud's work. The
book also explores Freud's further investigations into
thought-transmission, focusing around a meeting of the Secret
Committee in October 1919 and his clinical work with his own
daughter Anna. Occultism and the Origins of Psychoanalysis traces
the origins of key psychoanalytic ideas back to their roots in
hypnosis and the occult. Maria Pierri follows Sigmund Freud's early
interest in 'thought transmission', now known as telepathy. Freud's
private investigations led to discussions with other leading
figures, including Sandor Ferenczi, with whom he held a 'dialogue
of the unconsciouses', and Carl Jung. Freud and Ferenczi's work
assessed how fortune tellers could read the past from a client,
inspiring their investigations into countertransference, the
analytic relationship, unconscious communication and mother-infant
relationality. Pierri clearly links modern psychoanalytic practice
with Freud's interests in the occult using primary sources, some of
which have never before been published in English. These books will
be essential reading for psychoanalysts in practice and in
training, as well as academics and scholars of psychoanalytic
studies, Freudian ideas, psychoanalytic theory, the occult,
spirituality and the history of psychology.
