Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Freud's essay delves into the psychoanalytic themes within Wilhelm Jensen's novel, focusing on the protagonist Norbert Hanold, a young archaeologist. Through his journey of self-discovery and love for his childhood friend, Hanold grapples with idealization, particularly through the Gradiva bas-relief. Freud interprets the narrative as an illustration of "cure by love" and explores the persistence of the Oedipus complex in adult relationships, highlighting the complex interplay of delusion and dream in human psychology.
