title: Notes on Sigmund Freud's 'Analysis Terminable and Interminable'.
abstract: The author suggests that 'Analysis terminable and interminable' should be considered in the context of its particular background of political and scientific history as well as of Freud's personal biographical circumstances. It should not be considered only as a technical discussion. The author looks at Freud's own statements about the paper, together with those of contemporary (Fenichel) and later commentators.
