Sigmund Freud Archives
The Sigmund Freud Archives mainly consist of a trove of documents housed at the US Library of Congress and in the former residence of Sigmund Freud during the last year of his life, at 20 Maresfield Gardens in northwest London. They were at the center of a complicated scandal, described in Janet Malcolm's book ''In the Freud Archives.'' Jeffrey Masson writes about it in Chapter Nine: "Disillusions" of his book ''Final Analysis''. History After World War II Dr. Kurt R. Eissler (1909–1999) and a small group of psychoanalysts who knew Sigmund Freud personally, including Heinz Hartmann, Ernst Kris, Bertram Lewin and Hermann Nunberg, decided to preserve Freud's letters and papers in a single archive.

By the 1980s Dr. Eissler, with the help of Anna Freud, had collected thousands of tapes, letters and p ...
