The Birth of the Psychoanalytic Hero: Freud's Platonic Leonardo

An account of how Freud's account of Leonardo da Vinci's psychological development (his personal favorite among his works) offered a model for the way a scientific investigator could, like Freud himself, overcome the repression that had hampered previous inquirers into the human condition. This involved Freud's failure to recognize the Platonic origins of what he took as Leonardo's idiosyncratic view that “great love springs from great knowledge of the beloved object."
