Sigmund FREUD (1856-1939). L.A.S., Wien 27.3.1923, to N. Teulon Porter in Cambridge; 1page oblong in-12 on card, address on back with stamps; in German. Thanks for sending an extraordinarily interesting little book, the contents of which literally cry out for analytical clarification. What the preface says about the origin of fantasies is of course impossible: "auswordentlich interessenten Büchleins, dessen Inhalt nach analyscher Auflklärung förmlich schreit. Was die Vorrede über die Herkunft der Phantasien sagt ist natürlich unmöglich". The book in question, by future actress Joan Maude (1908-1998) and her mother Nancy Price, is enclosed: Behind the Night-Light, the By-World of a Child of Three, described by Joan Maude and faithfully recorded by Nancy Price (London, John Murray, 1913), with consignment from "The Author (& her daughter)", and bookplate from N.Teulon Porter.
