[Charles Agvent]

FREUD, Sigmund. UBER SPINALGANGLIEN UND RUCKENMARK DES PETROMYZON [ON 
THE SPINAL GANGLIA AND SPINAL CORD OF PETROMYZON]. [Vienna]: [Hof- und 
Staatsdruckerei], [1878]. First Edition. Offprint from SITZUNGSBERICHTE 
DER MATHEMATISCH-NATURWISSENSCHAFTLICHEN CLASSE DER KAISERLICHEN 
AKADEMIE DER WISSENSCHAFTEN, LXXVIII, Band I. Original brown printed 
wraps bound into black buckram with gilt lettering on the front cover; 
87 pages and 4 folding lithograph plates by F. Schima after Freud. The 
First Separate Edition of Freud's third paper, published while still a 
medical student under the guidance of physiologist Ernst von Brucke. 
Freud's work was a significant contribution to the data used by the 
scientific community to establish the evolutionary continuity of all 
organisms. Freud's drawings also convey his belief in the persistence of 
primitive structures in the fully developed organism, a connection 
brought to greater light by his reference to this very study when 
illustrating the concept of Fixation in his INTRODUCTORY LECTURES ON 
PSYCHOANALYSIS. Minor chipping to the wrappers; slight foxing to margins 
of plates. Near Fine. (#014372)        $1,000.00
