Fritz Wittels (1880–1950)

The vivid memoirs of Viennese psychoanalyst and Freud biographer Fritz Wittels, published here for the first time, recall his early life and career as friend and rival of Freud and of the great critic of psychoanalysis, satirist Karl Kraus. Wittel`s account of the erotic triangle in which he, Kraus, and the "child woman" became involved, and Freud`s crucial role in the controversy, reveals much about the early years of psychoanalysis and about fin de sicle Vienna.
