Csorbató1
13 July 1917
Dear Friend,
This place is situated on Lake Csorba 4,000 feet up in magnificent surroundings and with beautiful forests, but it rains and storms mercilessly and we are as cold as if it were winter. I do not know whether we shall put up with it for long. Ferenczi is expected to arrive here on leave on the 24th.
The sentence on p. 284 of the Lectures should read that it is precisely “a delusion of jealousy and not one of another kind. You realize the …”; instead of that the printer had repeated the similarly placed sentence on p. 282 (despite the proof corrections).2 But nothing can now be done about it, especially from here. The printing was such trouble that I will be happy if no more harm was done.
A woman patient of Jung's has sent me his new work on the psychology of the Ucs.3 so that I should change my judgement on the noble character. It bears the date 1917. But he seems not to have gone beyond the crude conversion into theory of the fact that he came across myself and Adler. We meet in the “archaic”.
Shortly before we left, my sister's twenty-year-old only son4 was killed in action. Grief was beyond description. There is no news about my warriors.
Hoping that your well-earned leave will do you nothing but good and asking you for news about yourself and your dear family,
Cordially yours,
Freud
