FREUD, Sigmund (1856-1939). Autograph manuscript. N.p., c.1931.
In German. Two pages, 247 x 400mm, ink with crayon.
Freud on female sexuality. From his 1931 essay "Über die weibliche Sexualität" ("Female Sexuality"), this manuscript comprises the end of section II and beginning of section III. Freud first published "Some Psychical Consequences of the Anatomical Distinction Between the Sexes" in 1925, and its appearance brought discussions of female psychology to the forefront of psychoanalysis throughout Europe. His follow-up would be this piece, which explores the development of female children and their attachment to their mothers. While other contemporary female psychiatrists had previously emphasized the psychic significance of the pre-Oedipal phase, Freud had considered this early attachment of a girl to her mother only insofar as it related to the girl's later attachment to her father. Early Freud theories considered female sexuality obscure, and generally assumed a parallel development between the sexes that was fundamentally phallocentric. In this essay, however, Freud notes the important work of female analysts including Jeanne Lampl-de Groot, Helene Deutsch, and Ruth Mack Brunswick, and acknowledges the potential importance of the pre-Oedipal phase. Here he delineates the sexual passivity of female children in their early encounters with their mothers and considers how it informs later stages of development. "Über die weibliche Sexualität" was first published in Internationale Zeitschrift für Psychoanalyse, 17 (1931), 317, and later gathered in The Standard Edition of the Complete Psychological Works of Sigmund Freud. The balance of this manuscript is held with the Sigmund Freud Papers in the Manuscript Division at the Library of Congress. Freud manuscripts are rare at auction; according to ABPC, this is the most substantial autograph manuscript for a major work sold since 1989.
