Description
The sixth piece of correspondence between G. Stanley Hall and Sigmund Freud. Hall expresses Clark's pleasure of Freud's acceptance and that he will keep Freud informed as conference plans continue to progress and develop.
Clark University's 1909 conference was a celebration of the institution's twentieth anniversary. The conference is most notable for the participation of Sigmund Freud who, along with Carl Jung, would take their first and only trip to America to attend. The five lectures Freud gave, collectively titled “The Origin and Development of Psychoanalysis” and subsequently known in print as “Five Lectures on Psychoanalysis”, mark the formal introduction of his theories to the United States.
