FREUD, Sigmund (1856-1939). Autograph note signed ("Freud"), to Dr. Felix Frisch, Vienna, 11 January 1928. one page, 8vo card (3¼ x 5¼in.), personal stationery, with autograph envelope . In German (English translation supplied). FREUD FEELS THE MOST CURRENT SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE IS PASSING HIM BY in this somewhat wistful note of thanks to Frisch, who had sent Freud a copy of his 57-page article on epilepsy, " Das 'Vegetative Syste' der Epileptiker , published in 1928. Freud writes: "Esteemed Colleague: Please accept my thanks for sending me your highly valuable work, from which I learned the current state of a region of the science in which I myself in times past--more than a generation ago--thought that I was at home." Frisch's work stressed abnormalities in the metabolism of epileptic patients, while Freud saw the affliction as a form of hysteria provoked by unbearable psychological pressures or traumas. Interestingly, in this same year Freud published his essay on Fyodr Dostoevsky's epilepsy, "Dostoevsky and Parricide," in which he argued that the author's affliction was the result of the suppressed rage that Dostoevsky felt towards his father. Provenance : By descent to the present owner.
