Reik, Schnitzler, Freud, and "The murderer": the limits of insight in psychoanalysis.

The author explores the relationships of three major figures: Theodor Reik, Arthur Schnitzler, and Sigmund Freud. He considers how Schnitzler's novella "The Murderer" impacted Reik's life in terms of both Freud's reference to the story in a session with Reik and the parallels between Reik's life and the plot of the story.
