FREUD, Sigmund.
Die Frage der Laienanalyse (The Question of Lay Analysis).
Leipzig / Wein / Zurich: Internationaler Psychoanalyticher Verlag, 1926. FIRST EDITION TP +[5]-123 + 4 leaves = Publisher's Advertisements. Octavo. First Edition, Wraps Issue. The Question of Lay Analysis is Freud's attempt to defend the practice of psychoanalysis by those without degrees in Medicine. The essay responds to what was becoming a crisis in medicine. With the increasing numbers of students studying and practicing psychoanalysis without medical degrees, many in the "official" medical field disapproved. Freud disagreed, driven to write in part by the situation of a close friend, Theodor Reik, who had been accused of practicing medicine without a license. Written as a postscript to the Innsbruck International Congress, Freud defended the practice of lay analysis in the face of pressure from the establishment.
