This early edition of Ernest Jones’ seminal “Papers on Psycho-Analysis” offers a window into the formative years of psychoanalytic theory and practice. Published just two years after Freud’s groundbreaking “The Interpretation of Dreams,” these collected papers represent Jones’ pioneering efforts to expand and disseminate Freudian thought in Britain. As one of Freud’s earliest disciples and biographers, Jones played a pivotal role in establishing psychoanalysis as a legitimate field of study. This copy’s well-preserved interior belies its century-old origins, inviting readers to immerse themselves in the heated debates and controversies that shaped the psychoanalytic movement. For collectors, the absence of a dust jacket presents an opportunity to acquire an affordable yet significant piece of intellectual history.
