Ebook: Psychoanalysis and Aesthetics

Originally published in 1924, this title is substantially a continuation of Baudouin's earlier work "Studies in Psychoanalysis," being an application of psychoanalysis to the theory of aesthetics, as illustrated by a detailed study of the works of the Belgian poet Emile Verhaeren. The 'interpretation' Freud has supplied for dreams Baudouin attempts - and archives - for the imagery of the artistic creator. The work is in part based upon private documents supplied to the author by Madame Verhaeren, an autograph letter, and a previously unpublished poem.
