The Analyst as a Writer and Biographer: Isidor Sadger’s Work in Psychobiography and the Psychoanalysis of Literature

Summary/Abstract: The psychoanalyst Isidor Sadger, one of Freud’s earliest and closest students, produced a series of works in psychobiography. Więckiewicz portrays him and his work to examine the relationship between literary scholarship and Freudian psychoanalysis, and to demonstrate that Sadger influenced Freud and his works on literature. Discussions of the Wednesday Psychological Society indicate the broad context in which Freud produced his key works on artists, writers and their works. Drawing on Michael Foucault, moreover, Więckiewicz proposes an alternative reading of nineteenth-century medical discourses. Her goal is to show that the earliest psychoanalysts consciously distanced themselves from the language of nineteenth-century psychiatry in order to develop new models for interpretation and writing.
