Condition: Gut. XVI; 360 S.; Illustr.; 24,5 cm. Gutes Ex.; Umschl. etwas berieben. - Englisch. - Edited by PERRY MEISEL and WALTER KENDRICK // With the publication of this intimate correspondence, we see for the first time the fascinating ways in which two very different worlds merged and influenced each other. Chronicling a year of almost daily correspondence between husband and wife while Alix was in Berlin being analyzed by Freud's disciple Karl Abraham, these letters between Freud's translators bring to life the scientific radicalism of early psychoanalysis and the elegant bohemianism of Bloomsbury. James and Alix were very much in love, and their letters are filled with charm, irony, and witty observations of people and the arts. We watch as they render Freud's subtleties into the language of England's intellectual elite, and we witness the theoretical pyrotechnics and personal infighting of early psychoanalysis, an analysis as much of the cabaret as of the consulting room. Here are Alix and Melanie Klein (the brilliant child analyst whom Alix later translates) disporting themselves in exotic costumes in the dance halls of Berlin; James arguing with Ernest Jones and dining with the Woolfs (Virgina attacks psychoanalysis violently). Against this backdrop unfolds the story of the Stracheys' complex relationship-Freud himself analyzed them - a remarkable modern marriage of equals. This extraordinary book is a work of rare immediacy, at once stunning living history and an enthralling love story.
