Knowledge of his psychoanalytic activities and writings in Vienna had reached the English-speaking world largely through their adoption by Eugen Bleuler, director of Burghölzli, the leading Swiss psychiatric hospital, and through the research of his first assistant, Jung. Jung’s belief that his studies in word association provided experimental support for Freud’s theory of repression led him to begin a dialogue with Freud several years earlier. Freud’s invitation primarily stemmed from G. Stanley Hall’s interest in his work on children’s psychological development and on sexuality. For Freud the visit, his only one to America, was important because of the external recognition it provided for his work after being marginalized in Vienna. For Jung it both intensified his engagement with psychoanalysis and planted the seeds for his final break with Freud 4 years later.
