The Unknown Freud: Five Plays and Five Essays

The Unknown Freud: Five Plays and Five Essays by Robert Lippman explores some of the feelings fears and beleifs that Freud may have privately harbored about his Jewish religious background upbringing and culture. This is done creatively through the five plays and backed up with scholarly academic research in the five essays.A fascinating psychobiographic interweaving of Freud--the creator of psychoanalysis and secular Jew--in an anti-analytic anti-Semitic society. We walk talk and playfully debate with Freud and the author on science and art the unconscious and culture. --Harold P. Blum MD. Executive Director Emeritus Sigmund Freud Archives; Former Editor Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association.
