Featured Article: Karl Abraham
Karl Abraham (May 3, 1877 – December 25, 1925) was an early German psychoanalyst, and a student and colleague of Sigmund Freud. His work on dreams enriched the understanding of myths and symbols, and he was a pioneer of the study of war neuroses. Abraham was fascinated by the various stages of psychosexual development, suggesting greater differentiation in libido development and postulating the connection between disturbance in psychosexual development and psychosis, which was later worked out by Freud. Freud regarded Karl Abraham as his 'best pupil' and eventually became his close friend and confidante.
