ABSTRACT
When Ferenczi started to think about war, he already had combat experience. Not only in what Freud used to call his “inner warsite”, the ménage à trois with Gizella and Elma, a ménage à quatre, including Freud (Berman, Chapter Six), but also serving in the latter’s wildem Heer14 1 as his new ally. And he was in the midst of his unresolved transference to Freud, having completed only three and a half weeks of his long-delayed analysis, fourteen hours per week, before he joined the army (Bonomi, Chapter Five).
