Provenance: the American poet and New York socialite Blanche Shoemaker Wagstaff (1888-1967), with her engraved pictorial bookplate. One of her closest friends was the German-American writer George Sylvester Viereck (1884-1962), a devotee of Freudian psychology. In 1923 Viereck published a popular science book, Rejuvenation: How Steinach Makes People Young, which drew Freud's attention. Diagnosed with oral cancer in early 1923, Freud underwent a series of unsuccessful surgeries before deciding to have a Steinach vasectomy that November. Named after the Viennese physiologist Eugen Steinach, the operation promised physical, mental, and sexual rejuvenation. Despite its inefficacy, the popularity of the Steinach procedure reflected the obsessive pursuit of medical rejuvenation in the early 20th century. Viereck subsequently travelled to Vienna to interview Freud, after which they maintained a steady correspondence. Grinstein 227. See Printing and the Mind of Man 389 for the German edition. Octavo.
