Abstract:
Of the first generation of psychoanalysts, Otto Rank was the one to
discover how immensely significant the importance of the early
mother-child relation is for the psychosocial development of the
human being. The basic perspective of the psychoanalytic theory and
treatment technique, which had first and foremost before then
concentrated on the father, was not broadened until Rank's book The
Trauma of Birth and its Meaning for Psychoanalysis was published
(1924/1952). Even the term "pre-oedipality" goes back to Rank
(1927, p. 14), a fact which is not widely known as Rank's oeuvre
was scarcely read after he had parted with Freud. In the following,
a discussion of Otto Rank's birth trauma theory will be presented
in the context of the history of theories, and the "trauma of
birth" metaphor will be illustrated by the Oedipus legend and by
the figure of the Sphinx.
Keywords: Rank, mother-child relation, trauma of birth,
