Résumé :
|
The "Kassa-Protokoll" is a record book of a doctor's patients and appointments from 1896-9, which is held in the Sigmund Freud Collection in the Library of Congress, Washington. Although it has received little attention in the secondary literature, those who have discussed it have attributed it to Freud, and conclusions have been drawn from it about Freud's medical practice at the end of the 1890s. Although the book has Freud's name on the cover it is argued here that the book was never Freud's and has nothing to do with him. It is in fact a fairly crude forgery. Possible reasons for the incorportation of this into the Freud Archives are discussed, alongside a consideration of why the forgery has been undetected by Freud scholars for so long.
