Abstract
CASSORLA, Roosevelt M. S.. Uncanny in New York: Schreber, Sabine Speirlein and Zvi Lothane. J. psicanal. [online]. 2019, vol.52, n.96, pp.227-236. ISSN 0103-5835.
From the meeting with an American analyst, Henry Zvi Lothane, the author relates experience lived in New York, where he was invited by the Society of Psychoanalysis of Columbia University. The text addresses aspects of American psychoanalysis while discussing Lothane's ideas. This author, after exhaustive documentary studies, proposes that Schreber was a victim of the power of psychiatry and that Jung lied to Freud about his relationship with Sabine Sperlein. The text includes a letter translated from Russian by Lothane, in which Sabine shows her ability to observe herself and think about what she observes.
