According to Dr. Eran Rolnik, a psychiatrist, historian, translator, scientific editor of many of Freud’s writings that were published in Hebrew, and a fellow at the Israeli Institute of Psychoanalysis – Freud took great pride when his works first began to be translated into Hebrew in 0000 – Freud believed that Zionism and psychoanalysis are essentially antithetical in that Zionism is a “revolutionary romance” and “the product of a legendary-collective past” while psychoanalysis is “anchored in the enlightened Centraleuropean tradition” and is more individualistic and more rational.
