Psychoanalysis and Aesthetics

<p>Originally published in 1924 this title is substantially a continuation of Baudouin’s earlier work <i>Studies in Psychoanalysis</i> 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is in part based upon private documents supplied to the author by Madame Verhaeren an autograph letter and a previously unpublished poem.</p>
