* Doyle (Sir Arthur Conan, 1859-1930). Autograph letter signed `A. Conan Doyle’, Windlesham, Crowborough, Sussex, 22nd February, no year, to [Geoffrey] Hodson, `I expect Sunday is a Òdies nonÓ with you but we have our big Sunday gathering at 12.00 at the Queen’s Hall. I am the speaker this time and shall survey this movement in a way which might interest you. If you do come make for door 15 and the assembling [?] so that I can ensure you good seats. There is always a great crowd. If you can’t come what about sending a good man to report not what we say so much as the evidence of a big popular movement’, printed letterhead, a little soiling and creasing, one page, 8vo. The letter probably refers to one of Conan Doyle’s talks on spiritualism, possibly on 31st March 1920. Geoffrey Hodson (1886-1963) was an occultist, Theosophist and medium. In 1921 Conan Doyle arranged for Hodson to come to Cottingley to examine the now infamous Cottingley fairy photographs and to sit with the girls in the hope that even stronger fairy shapes would materialise. In August Mr Hodson reported seeing wood elves under some beech trees as well as dancing fairies in the field.. (1)

FREUD SIGMUND: (1856-1939) Austrian Psychiatrist. An important T.L.S., Freud, two pages, large 4to, Vienna, 10th November 1924, to `Lieber Herr Doktor!` (Paul Federn), on his personal printed stationery, in German. Freud writes, in full, `I am sorry that you have taken the affair U. [Urbantschitsch] so seriously, and I believe there is no reason for that. If you consider submitting your demission in the Society on these grounds, you will certainly receive a vote of confidence. My confidence is not shaken. Therefore, it will probably be best that you do not undertake anything like that. You have shown in this case, as you have in others, that you are in danger of going too far when you are helping someone to get out of a bad situation. That is just one of your traits which we have already got used to. In the present case, of course, you mustn`t have been so confident that my admitted sympathy for U. was going to be strong enough to force him upon the Society against its will. You also know that when it comes to emotions, it depends on the quantities. Qualitative analysis alone does nothing. Furthermore, I have not made it a secret to you and the others that the growing realisation of his untruthfulness mad it impossible for me to undertake further steps in his favour. When you thus say that I disavow you, I can only answer that I have made my attitude completely clear, of which you only knew a portion. After all, I had just recently received a new proof of his unreliability in the matter of the examined letter, and you yourself had made a new contribution to this topic in the Society with the story of the uncured patient. Only for the sake of the discussion do I state again that I still don`t share your opinion about Bernfeld`s conduct. It is quite right that the analysed must bare all his flaws to the analyst, in turn he may be assured of his confidentiality. However, if there is among these flaws an incurable one, which makes his acceptance in the Society appear unadvisable, then this duty of confidentiality becomes second to the duty of not bringing harm to the cause. In all these points I am used to judge more severely than you, but I am of the opinion that minor differences must not interfere with cooperation, since a complete agreement among different people can never be achieved and would not even be desirable. In the hope that these frank words will help you over the slight shock, I am with cordial regards,`. A letter of exceptional content relating to the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society, and with excellent associations. A couple of very minor splits to the central vertical fold, not affecting the text or signature, otherwise VG. Paul Federn (1871-1950) Austrian-American Psychologist. Federn was deeply influenced by Sigmund Freud`s Interpretaion of Dreams and in 1904 became devoted to the field of psychoanalysis. Federn was an important, early follower of Freud and became his official representative in 1924, the same year as this letter was written. It was also in this year that Federn became Vice President of the Vienna Society, extensively referred to in the letter.Rudolf von Urbantschitsch (1879-1964) Austrian Psychiatrist and Psychologist, author of Sex Perfection and Marital Happiness (1952). Urbantschitsch was analysed by Federn from 1922-23. After the completion of the analysis he became a prolific speaker, causing criticism among some fellow analysts. Indeed, as a Catholic, an aristocrat, and a monarchist, Urbantschitsch was an exception in the social make-up of the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society. Through his intense lecturing he contributed to vulgarising the discoveries of psychoanalysis and alienated his fellow colleagues, as the letter illustrates. They felt that he presented psychoanalysis in a simplified fashion. This criticism, and his love affairs (two of which resulted in suicide) contributed to the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society`s rejecting his request to renew his membership and in 1924, the year of this letter, he was even refused the status of a guest.Siegfried Bernfeld (1892-1953) Austrian Psycholgist, an important member of the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society, who served as its secretary and librarian.
