Grinstein 26474; Norman Catalog F70.
Rank's second published book is the classic psychoanalytic treatment of the subject and one of the great analytic contributions to folkore and comparative mythology. "Rank, a member of Freud's inner circle, attempted to demonstrate in his Myth of the Birth of the Hero that many of the themes and motives in poetry and mythology are rooted in the Oedipus complex. Freud contributed to Rank's book a section entitled "Die Familienromane der Neurotiker" (The family romance of neurotics), in which he described the adoption fantasies held by many neurotics. These are common fantasies, of endless variety, in which the child, disappointed in the recognition that his previously overestimated parents are ordinary like most other people, imagines that he is adopted and that his 'real' parents are superior to those with whom he lives" [Norman Catalog].
Grinstein 26508.
