Abstract | The writings of Nicolas Abraham (1919-75) and Maria Torok (1926-98) are presented as 'renewals of psychoanalysis' yet their treatment of dreams in revising Freud's Wolf Man case history poses significant problems for one of Freud's principal claims for the dream work: that it presents as the fulfilment of a wish. Reviewing the development of their theory of the crypt in the ego, this paper proposes ultimately that a renewal of the theory of the crypt can invigorate, rather than invalidate, our received picture of dream work. |
