The diary of Sigmund Freud, 1929 - 1939. A record of the final decade. The Freud Museum, London. Translated, annotated., with an introduction by Michael Molnar.

Umschlag leicht berieben, sonst gutes Exemplar. - During the last ten years of his life in Vienna and London, Sigmund Freud kept a diary. On large, unbound sheets of paper, he recorded in brief the main events that befell him and his family, and the major steps - or pitfalls - of the growing psychoanalytic movement. In the background loomed the dark politics of a Europe heading towards war. For the first time, this diary has been translated and edited. Michael Molnar, Research Director of the Freud Museum has annotated the 1000 entries, drawing on private papers and on Freud's enormous, and still largely unpublished, correspondence, to create a vivid picture of the last years of Freud's life: his relations with his family and his friends; his anxieties about his work; the feuds of his followers: his dramatic escape from Nazi Austria: his long battle against cancer. The Diary of Sigmund Freud contains a facsimile of the original 'Concise Chronicle' as Freud called it, and is enriched with countless photographs (most hitherto unpublished) drawn from the archives of the Freud Museum. Linking introductions to each year, comprehensive indexes and source-notes make this a wide-ranging and authoritative, as well as intimate, biographical resource. ISBN 0701209240
