Grinstein 824.
Brandell was Professor of the History of Literature at Uppsala University.
Sections on language & myth, the prebiographical unconscious, the exigencies of the prebiographical unconscious, the hypothesis of the mental and psychosomatic genesis of cancer. Analyzed by Charles Odier, then by Laforgue, Choisy started in 1946 the journal Psyché: revue internationale de psychanalyse et des sciences de l'homme, which "was intent on being open to all problems of the contemporary world. It was part of a revisionist effort regarding Freud's teachings, of an occultist, meditative, or Orientalist tendency, through which a rather diffuse fidelity to the ieals of the Roman Catholic Church was affirmed" [Roudinesco p.192]. Though known in the Anglo-American world only for her books on Freud and prostitution, she wrote a wide variety of books: novels, poetry, essays, belles lettres, pedagogy, psychoanalysis, reportage.

Headed "Dear Mr. Bernays!" and written in a formal manner unlike Freud's other letters to Bernays—so obviously a letter either intended to be shown to others or sent with that possibility in mind. With a complete English translation. Freud writes "You have informed me of your intention to initiate solicitations for a scientific foundation to promote psychoanalysis. In your letter you said that your countrymen are used to making money available for idealistic purposes … I welcome your intentions with great satisfaction …. [and] am willing to take on the management of the foundation." Freud then suggests that Bernays appoint a committee of directors, half Americans and half Europeans. Such a foundation, Freud continues, would have three principal functions: 1) Maintenance and enlargement of existing psychoanalytic institutions; 2) support for the IPV; 3) advertising pschoanalysis in a dignified and serious way so as to spread awareness of its nature and benefits. Freud closes by noting that all these purposes would appeal to educated and liberal-thinking Americans, and that one of his Hungarian followers, Anton von Freund, had already funded such a foundation during the first world war, but the funds were prematurely depleted because of devaluation of the Austro-Hungarian currency.Freud's American nephew Edward L. Bernays (1891-1995) was the founder of public relations. In the late teens and '20s he and Freud engaged in an extensive correspondence (partially published in Bernays' Biography of a Purpose), much of it relating to the publication of an English translation of Freud's introductory lectures, which Bernays arranged with Horace Liveright.
Written as an addendum to a letter just sent to Bernays in an effort to answer two questions raised by Bernays in a letter sent to Anna. In the quite formal letter just sent Freud had agreed to head a foundation to be set up in American to promote psychoanalysis. Here he specifies that he wants Karl Abraham, Max Eitingon, and Sandor Ferenczi to be the European members of the committee. There is an argument against accepting more than a few American analysts as directors, since they would surely favor using the money in America, which will get us nothing. ["Es gibt ein Argument dagegen, mehrere der dortigen Analytiker aufzunehmen. Sie werden gewiss dafür sein, dass das Geld in Amerika verwendet wird, wovon wir nichts haben. Ueberlegen Dir diesen Punkt."] The two detailed questions on costs for a scholarship and gratuitious treatment are very difficult to answer. They can be taken care of later by putting the questions to the policlinik in Berlin. Freud then notes that he has just received the Spanish translation of "Selbstdarstellung," which he had given to Edward. Its existence proves that the publisher in Leipzig will allow an isolated translation. Freud closes "Dein Onkel" [typed], signed "Sigm." with a typed P.S. noting that Martin has returned and asking Edward to let them know how long they are going to stay in Vienna.
