Sigmund Freud DETAILSOne genius takes on another. Bursting defiantly and gleefully beyond the bounds of orthodox biography; Sigmund Freud is a wildly humorous exercise in bending; stretching and speculating on the activities of the so-called Father of Psychoanalysis. Ralph Steadman wields his shrewd wit and fierce pen to highlight the movements of Freuds life and career; from early childhood to the moment of death.But theres a twist. Through a masterful interplay of text and illustration; each scene is transformed into a joking situation; which the artist hilariously examines according to the techniques discussed by Freud himself in his 1905 book; Jokes and Their Relation to the Unconscious. The result is a fantastic Freudian festival of visual and verbal puns; unexpected insights; and sheer intellectual enjoyment. Originally published in hardcover in 1979; released in paperback in 1997; and now back in print; Sigmund Freud is superbly illustrated with more than 50 major drawings and 25 vignettes. It remains one of the most original illustrated books of our times and a Ralph Steadman classic.
