Summary:"The 16 essays explore the particular imbeddedness of Freud and his followers in the cultural matrix of Jewish Central and Eastern Europe. Topics covered include general, sociological, historical, and cultural issues and then turn to the personal. Freud's emphasis on intellectualism and morality reveal the deep and abiding influence of European Jewish tradition upon his work"--Provided by publisher.
