Item description from seller

Zweite, durchgesehene und erweiterte Auflage. Wien : Internationaler Psychoanalytischer Verlag, 1936. Second edition, revised and enlarged. Octavo (190 x 135 mm), publisher's light blue cloth, the upper board with a facsimile of Freud's famous signature in darker blue, spine also lettered in dark blue (a little rubbed), in the publisher's dust jacket featuring a portrait of Freud (front panel with short repaired tear at top edge, minor wear at corners and spine ends, old collection shelf label towards foot of spine); the front free-endpaper with the author's signature and year boldly written in black fountain pen: 'Sigm. Freud 1936'; pp. 107, [1 blank], [1Verzeichnis der Bildbeilagen], [1 blank], [4 publisher's advertisements for the works of Freud]; with 5 b/w photographic plates; occasional foxing (very light and for the most part marginal), otherwise internally clean and sound. Signed by the founder of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud (1856-1939). The first edition of Selbstdarstellung (An Autobiographical Study) appeared in 1924 as a paperback published by Felix Meiner Verlag in Hamburg. Twelve years later, towards the end of his life, Freud revisited the project and, drawing on his accumulated experience, he substantially revised and expanded the text, more than doubling the original number of pages. This second edition, produced under the most oppressive conditions during the Nazi regime in Germany, was to be Freud's last publication for Internationaler Psychoanalystischer Verlag - his own independent publishing firm. Itincludes additional footnotes, a postscript, and supplementary material in the main text which broadens the account of hisprofessional development and of the birth of psychoanalysis. Alongside the previously shown 1909 portrait, it also features several illustrations for the first time: a picture of Freud as a boy; a photograph of the Freuds from their engagement period; a study based on the etching by Ferdinand Schmutzer; and a portrait from 1936.
