Over a forty year period he amassed an extraordinary array of nearly three thousand statues, vases, reliefs, busts, rings and prints. For Freud, psychoanalysis and his art collection developed together in a symbiotic, nourishing relationship, each informing and enriching the other. Freud used myth to illustrate controversial theories like the Oedipus complex, situating ancient symbolism in a modern context. To create a portrait of Freud the art collector, Janine Burke builds a vibrant, richly detailed and intimate image of his life and times, tracing Freud's taste for beautiful things back to his earliest years. The Sphinx on the Table is set against the glittering, decadent, backdrop of fin-de-siecle Vienna where an artistic flowering took place in painting, theater, writing and architecture.--From publisher's description. 600 10 $a Freud, Sigmund, $d 1856-1939. 650 0 $a Psychoanalysis. 650 0 $a Art $x Psychology. 650 0 $a Psychoanalysts. $v Biography. 939 $a 5706888 941 $a 3 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160823081049.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A3E71D942B0D11DE8F715E08A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b IOU 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20090701080000.0Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
