Rank, Otto
“[Rank’s thought] has implications for the deepest and broadest development of the social sciences.. and of all [Rank’s] books, Art and Artist is the most secure monument to his genius.” — Ernest Becker
Along with Adler and Jung, Otto Rank was one of the intellectual giants in the inner circle around Sigmund Freud. Art and Artist, his major statement on the relationship of art to the individual and society, pursues in a broader cultural context Freud’s ideas on art and neurosis and has had an important influence on many twentieth-century writers and thinkers, beginning with Henry Miller and Anais Nin.
“He separates the neurotic from the artist…” foreword by Anais Nin–Peter.
