This volume contains the last four of freud´s six major case histories. the rat man first came to freud in 1907, aged 29, suffering from obsessional fears and irresistible, violent impulses. the treatment lasted a year and the patient regained his mental health. dr schreber, sometime appeal court judge in dresden, suffered from severe bouts of paranoid delusions. he was never freud´s patient and the analysis of this case was based on shreber´s autobiography. this gave freud the opportunity of publishing his theory of the close connection between paranoia and repressed passive homosexuality - supported by schreber´s frank and detailed account of his fantasies and delusions. the wolf man´s history is the longest, most complicated and the most famous of all freud´s cases. the rich young russian patient who had suffered as a child from a hysterical fear of wolves and from religious obsessions, was treated by freud for four-and-a-half years. in 1920 freud published the incomplete analysis of a homosexual girl of 18. in it, female sexuality is considered far more deeply than in freud´s earlier work.
