Freud, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Vulture's Tail

Meer over het boek

Moving skillfully between fifteenth-century Florence and twentieth-century Vienna, noted author and art historian Wayne Andersen revisits the first psychoanalytic biography, Sigmund Freud’s 1910 study of Leonardo da Vinci, and offers an entirely new interpretation of Leonardo’s sexuality.“Wayne Andersen is an infectious writer and an infectious thinker. This book has all the ingredients that make for an excellent read, where one learns as much about Freud as about Leonardo, and about Andersen himself in the bargain.”-James Beck, Professor of Art History, Columbia University
