Sigmund
Freuds widerständiges Erbe.
Grenzgänge innerhalb und außerhalb
psychoanalytischer Institutionen.
Symposium
anlässlich des 70sten Geburtstags
von Bernd Nitzschke
This
issue is a Festschrift celebrating the 70th birthday of Bernd
Nitzschke, one among Freud’s oppositional heirs. Freud himself
was, however, a rebel with revolutionary theories about sexuality.
In 1998, I first saw Nitzschke’s name in Die Zeit citing Freud (1911) on Paul Schreber: “The delusional formations, which
we take to be the pathological product, are in reality an attempt
at recovery, a process of reconstruction” (p. 71, Freud’s
italics). I wrote to him, we met in 1998, became friends, and
collaborated on a number of psychoanalytic projects. This review
is my tribute to Bernd’s lifetime achievement as a psychoanalyst
and prolific historian of psychoanalysis.

Being
one of the last Jewish New York City colleagues to be fluent in
German, Henry Zvi
Lothane’s review of the
No.2/2015 issue of the journal Psychoanalyse - Texte zur
Sozialforschung is meant as a tribute to his friend Bernd
Nitzschke, whom he defines as “one among Freud’s oppositional
heirs”. That issue contains papers by André Karger (the editor
of this current issue, together with Bertram von der Stein) on
Nitzschke’s life and work; a paper by Bertram von der Stein on
interdisciplinary dialogue; a paper by Albrecht Götz von
Ohlenhausen on the anti-conformist analytic pioneer Otto Gross
(1877-1920); a paper by Andreas Peglau on Wilhelm Reich, on whose
drama Nitzschke edited a book together with Karl Fallend in 1997;
a paper by Galina Hristeva on Georg Groddeck; a paper by Thomas
Anz on the relationship between psychoanalysis and modern
literature; and a paper by Helmut Dahmer on Marx and Freud. As
readers can see, this Festschrift is also a good proof of how much
psychoanalysis in Germany is still cultivated by an enlightened
intellectual elite.
