ABSTRACT

In the Conclusion, I return to my initial question on the future methodologies of writing the history of psychoanalysis in Central Europe. My focus is on the importance of the relational understanding of research and writing practices. I also emphasize the need to undertake interdisciplinary reflection on the specificity of psychoanalytic literary genres and fin-de-siècle psycho-medical discourses. The final remarks concern the comparative cultural and relational history of psychoanalysis in Central Europe.
