AND LIVERIGHT PUBLISHERS NEW YORK 1927 AUTHORS PREFACE THE courtesy
of the Institute of Psycho-Analysis enables me to publish a second
collection of my psycho-analytical writings in English the first
appeared in 1916 in the splendid translation of my honoured friend.
Dr. Ernest Jones, under the title, Contributions to Psycho-Analysis
Boston Badger and Co., reappearing in several new editions under
the title Sex and Psycho analysis, The present collection in no way
gives a systematic survey of the development of psycho-analysis in
the inter vening years, but only the disjointed papers which
represent the authors personal contribution to this development.
Even in their diversity of form, perhaps in their very medley, I
believe these papers give a true picture of the manifold interests
which continually occupy the physician practising psycho-analysis,
and which bring him into touch with the most varied fields of the
natural and mental sciences. The personal inclinations of the
author inevitably find expression the outlook is predominantly that
of the medical rather than that of the abstract sciences, and there
gradually emerges a sort of psycho-analytical theory of one of the
important manifestations of instinct Genitality . The theories of
genitality have been collected under the title, An Attempt to
formulate a Genital Theory which appeared in German in 1924 an
English translationwill shortly be published. The experiences
collected in the course of my practice 7 8 THEORY AND TECHNIQUE OF
PSYCHO-ANALYSIS of psycho-analysis become grouped under two heads.
One of these tends to shed some analytical light derived from
experience upon certain normal and pathological psychic phenomena
which have not been fully explained previously, and attempts to
explain the symptoms of hysteria., tic, etc. A somewhat larger work
falling under this heading has already appeared in English in the c
Nervous and Mental Disease Monograph Series as the theoretical part
of an analytic research into General Paralysis of the Insane. The
other focus of interest in my work lies in the field of technique
my attempt to speed up the analytic technique by so-called active
measures belongs to this category. I mention this particularly,
because an erroneous opinion repeatedly crops up that the classical
Freudian technique was to be replaced by something new in my Active
Technique. It will not escape the attentive reader that there can
be no question of that, and that my technical innovations should
only be applied occasionally as adjuvants in reinforcing the
Freudian method. Inasmuch as I have overworked this measure
occasionally, following one of Ranks suggestions the setting of a
limit to the duration of the analysis, I must on empirical grounds
reduce its value to its legitimate measure see Contra indications
of the Active Technique For the rest I hold fast to the critical
views expressed in the brochure on the Development of the
Psycho-Analytic Technique Nervous and Mental Disease Monograph
Series on certain deficiencies in the application of the
conventional method, but I take exception to theone-sidedness of
the Birth-Theory of the neuroses and the much-overdone
Birth-Technique, It gives me great pleasure to lay my work once
more before Anglo-Saxon readers, particularly because I have found
that with their broad-mindedness they often strive AUTHORS PREFACE
to view such opinions as mine quite without prejudice, whereas
elsewhere these are turned down a timine on account of their
novelty or their boldness. I owe many thanks to the translator of
most of this work Dr...
The Ferenczi-Jones correspondence presented here is an important
document of the early history of psychoanalysis. It spans more than
two decades, and addresses many of the relevant issues of the
psychoanalytic movement between 1911-1933, such as Freud's relation
to Stekel, Adler and Jung; the First World War, the debates of the
1920s regarding the theoretical and technical ideas of Rank and
Ferenczi; problems of leadership, structure, and finding a center
for the psychoanalytical movement; as well as issues related to
telepathy and lay analysis. It includes thirty-seven letters and
six postcards, as well as original documents waiting to be found
for eight decades; these belong to the "private," personal history
of psychoanalysis and help to decode diverse aspects of the
experience preserved in these documentary memories of former
generations. Perhaps the most interesting aspect of this
correspondence is how it allows us to build up a far more nuanced
picture of the development of an extraordinary relationship between
Ferenczi and Jones. It could hardly be termed harmonious, and was
not devoid of rivalry and jealousy, sometimes even of hidden
passion and outright hostility. Nevertheless, friendship, sympathy,
collegiality and readiness for cooperation were just as important
for Ferenczi and Jones as rivalry, mistrust and suspicion. This
volume celebrates the 100th anniversary of the foundation in 1913
of both the British and the Hungarian Psychoanalytical Societies.
This book expands the symbols of the phallus and vagina into cosmic
symbols, not by reference to myths but by his interpretations of
embryonic, physiological, psychological facts. It develops the view
that the whole of life is determined by a tendency to return to the
womb, equating the process of birth with the phylogenetic
transition of a
This is the correspondence between two physicians and
psychoanalysts from the circle of Sigmund Freud, a correspondence
ended only by the death of Ferenzci in 1933. The letters, largely
those of Ferenczi (as few of Groddeck's have been preserved), bear
witness to the friendship of two men who made so many original
contributions to psychoanalysis, and at the same time reflect the
history of psychoanalysis. They met in the summer of 1921, when
Ferenczi was taking a cure at the Sanatorium in Baden Baden and
Groddeck was his doctor, and they soon became friends. Their
correspondence is personal and intimate, and shows us two highly
individual personalities. Additionally, the volume includes the
introduction to the original edition of these letters, first
published in French in 1982, by Judith Dupont, psychoanalyst,
translator, and editor of Ferenczi's complete works in French.
Ample notes by Christopher Fortune provide the background to this
correspondence.
This book is a collection of Ferenczi's early papers which secured
him, in an amazingly short time, his prominent position among
Freud's followers. Included here are several of the papers that now
belong to the classics of psychoanalysis, such as: "Introjection
and Transference", "On Obscene Words", "On Onasism: Stages in
Development of the Sense of Reality" and "The Ontogenesis of the
Interest in Money". In addition it contains Ferenczi's pioneer
papers on impotence, homosexuality, paranoia, and symbolism.

Charts the development of Ferenczi's 'Active Technique' in papers
such as "The Technique of Psychoanalysis" and "Further Development
of an Active Therapy". Ferenczi made outstanding contributions to
the theory and practice of psychoanalysis. This volume, first
published in 1926, brings together the fruit of ten year's work and
study. Primary medical in orientation and concerned with technique,
it covers a wide range of topics: Nosology, Technique, Sexual
Theory, From the Nursery, Dreams, Symbolism, Applied
Psycho-Analysis, Medical Jurisprudence and Religion.
This final volume includes "Confusion of Tongues Between Children
and Adults" in which Ferenczi formulates his controversal ideas on
childhood sexuality, and the conflict between the languages of
tenderness and passion. First published in 1955, this book contains
papers written by Ferenczi during his last years and some of his
unpublished notes. It demonstrates Ferenczi's combination of great
clinical understanding and an almost uncanny insight into
unconscious process. Among the forty important items included are
papers on the following: "Freud's Influence on Medicine",
"Laughter", "Epileptic Fits", "Dirigible Dreams", "Philosophy and
Psycho-Analysis", "Paranoia", "The Interpretation of Tunes Which
Come into One's Head" and "The Genesis of Jus Primae Noctis".
This book expands the symbols of the phallus and vagina into cosmic
symbols, not by reference to myths but by his interpretations of
embryonic, physiological, psychological facts. It develops the view
that the whole of life is determined by a tendency to return to the
womb, equating the process of birth with the phylogenetic
transition of animal life from water to land, and linking coitus to
the idea of "thalassal regression": "the longing for the sea-life
from which man emerged to primeval times".
In the half-century since his death, the Hungarian analyst
Sandor Ferenczi has amassed an influential following within the
psychoanalytic community. During his lifetime Ferenczi, a respected
associate and intimate of Freud, unleashed widely disputed ideas
that influenced greatly the evolution of modern psychoanalytic
technique and practice. In a sequence of short, condensed entries,
Sandor Ferenczi's Diary records self-critical reflections on
conventional theory--as well as criticisms of Ferenczi's own
experiments with technique--and his obstinate struggle to divest
himself and psychoanalysis of professional hypocrisy. From these
pages emerges a hitherto unheard voice, speaking to his heirs with
startling candor and forceful originality--a voice that still
resonates in the continuing debates over the nature of the
relationship in psychoanalytic practice.
2012 Reprint of 1925 Edition. Exact facsimile of the original
edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. In this
book, conceived in 1922 and published in 1924, Sandor Ferenczi and
Otto Rank were reacting against the practical fallout (transference
and resistances in psychoanalytic treatment) from Freud's ideas on
repetition compulsion and analysis of the ego. This book introduced
ideas and controversies that were taken up by later authors
(Michael Balint, Donald W. Winnicott, Harold F. Searles, Jacques
Lacan): the therapeutic use of object relations and regression; the
analyst's "discretion" (caution in interpretation); the analyst's
resistances and the role of countertransference; interest in
training for physicians; and the risks inherent in "training"
analysis.
