Josef Breuer

perhaps most famous for Josef Breuer’s study of (and writing about) her, but his treatment lasted only a couple of years—she herself spent nearly thirteen years, between 1882 and 1895, actively attempting to reconstruct herself. The aim of this reconstruction was to grow not only from her illness but also from her previous life as a bourgeois homemaker, from the healthy aspects of her grief for her father, and (perhaps most notably) from her immense emotional reliance on Breuer himself. In fact, far

Sigmund Freud established and originated the psychoanalysis with the emphasis on helping the patients of neurotic illnesses. Freud formulated his method through Joseph Breuer’s hypnotic method that is the free association. He revolutionalized the ideas of how the human mind works; He challenged the long-standing identification of the self with the conscious thinking subject. Freud established the theory of the unconscious. This becomes a controversial one that is comparable to the Copernican revolution

Journal #2: Through Einstein and Freud’s exchanges in Why War, it was stated by Sigmund Freud that war is the result to resolve conflict through the means of violence (Freud, p. 549). He claims that there is no permanent fix to war; rather there is a temporary fix through the creation of a community bonded by a shared identity and emotional ties (Freud, 550). Our society has changed drastically in several different aspects since this paper was originally written in 1932, but the largest way

Case of Anna O Carey Wolf Argosy University 2016 Case of Anna O Background Anna O was 21 year old patient of Breuer. Anna O had developed strange symptoms while taking care of her father who was ill. She developed a cough along with paralysis, hallucinations, hysteria, and loss of feeling in her arms and legs as well as muscle spasms.

Jean Sibelius born as Johan Christian Julius Sibelius on December 8, 1865 in a small Russian town in Finland. Sibelius began to take his interest in music serious when he became a teenager. At the age of 20, he decided to pave his way in the music industry by declaring it as a career. He was positive that this was what he wanted to do for the rest of his life. Then, he enrolled in a music school to fulfill this dream. The school was later named Sibelius Academy in his honor. Sibelius began to work

So much more can be conveyed in artwork when a finite canvas doesn’t imprison an artist. Pushing the boundaries of artwork from previous time periods allows new artists and graphic designers to experiment with, challenge, and/or destroy the rules of graphic design. This allowed for designs that truly challenge the audience, as well as other designers. Take for example the grunge artwork of David Carson who broke most compositional and legibility rules of graphic design – his style can be summarized

“TIME” magazine in 1956 defined Breuer as one of those great designers and architects that have “moulded the 20th century”. As a designer, with his tubular steel furniture, he has written the history of design: his “Wassily” chair, in fact, has became an icon of modern living. As an architect he has been one of the most innovative and interesting ones of his time, but, unfortunately, this role has not been so often recognized in him by the historians.  M. Breuer belongs to a generation to which

It was founded in 1919 in the city of Weimar in Germany by architect Walter Gropius. Although the Bauhaus was founded by an

The Whitney Museum of American Art has often been referred to a citadel of American Art, partially due to the museums façade, a striking granite building (Figure 1), designed by Bauhaus trained architect Marcel Breuer. The museum perpetuates this reference through its biennial review of contemporary American Art, which the Whitney has become most famous for. The biennial has become since its inception a measure of the state of contemporary art in America today. Since the Museum's opening in 1931
