A little cocaine to loosen my tongue - Paperback
by Sigmund Freud (Author)
"I was very handsome and made the best impression on myself. We took a car (sharing the expenses). Ricchetti was terribly nervous, I was quite serene thanks to a small dose of cocaine, although his success was assured, and I had every reason to fear ridicule. (...) This is how I have performed (or rather how the cocaine has performed) and I am very satisfied."
Freud, letter to Martha dated January 20, 1886. During the 1880s, the young Freud, who had not yet explored the labyrinths of the unconscious, tried to make a name for himself by publishing studies on erythroxylon coca, a plant from which an alkaloid, cocaine, was made and whose properties he praised. To these studies, which the French-speaking reader will find here in a new translation, we enclose some letters to Martha Bernays, his future wife, which shed light on Freud's intimacy with the drug.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
