Mad, bad and sad: Women and the mind doctors

摘要

The house is unmistakably Sigmund Freud's, although he only occupied it for a year. Emigrating to England as a result of Germany's annexation of Austria in June 1938, Freud died there in 1939. Now a museum, visitors can see his collection of heavy furniture, rich cloths, and archaeological treasures and totems of many traditions: Greek, Roman, Mesopotamian. He called them his 'old and grubby gods' who aided him in his work. Archaeology and psychoanalysis were closely connected for Freud since both require digging to reveal the truth.
