Martin Bergmann demonstrates different aspects of what is very distinctively, a psychoanalytic orientation of mind in extension of viewpoint and value, having no equal in our postmodern world. Unselfconscious in forthright use of the analyst's personality in demonstration of psychoanalytic thinking, Bergmann's 1963 paper “The Place of Paul Federn's Ego Psychology in Psychoanalytic Metapsychology” presents a Rosetta Stone for discerning the Jewishly inflected and particular cultural presence of Bildung (Mosse, 1985; Sorkin, 1983, 1987), the Enlightenment practice of self-development, in the textual history of psychoanalysis.
