Dear Professor!
Finally, you get possession of your English issues; I am sending them with today's mail. In one of the issues you will find a strange baroque statue of our prophet Moses in photographic reproduction. I believe the statue represents a moment in which Moses (perhaps indignant over the behavior of the Jews) puts on his sandals to climb Mount Zion. In Toledo we saw, likewise in a Catholic church, a much more grotesque Moses statue as an object of veneration.
I am occupied almost exclusively with the not very numerous cases, and am feeling more and more secure in my technique. Am also uncommonly satisfied with my therapeutic and characterological results. Healthwise, somewhat better, but still not completely well.
Many kind regards.
Yours,
Ferenczi
