Note 98 — Lohengrin
Smith Ely Jelliffe translation
This idea which is derived from the knowledge of the neurotic fantasy and symptom construction, was applied by Professor Freud to the interpretation of the romantic and mythical work of poetic imagination, in a lecture entitled: “Der Dichter und das Phantasieren” (Poets and Imaginings) (Reprint, 2d series of Collected Short Articles), p. 1970.
