Hi Iulia,
Dr. Mayer was the father of a friend who later became a well known
physicist in the USA. I knew Hardy (his son) from Czernowitz and met
him again in Bucharest in 1946. At that time I got interested in Freud
and from Dr. Mayer's library I read the Traumdeutung and the one on
wit. I had already (no idea how) managed to read the Psychopathology
of everyday life. Of course all of them in the original German
version. To my knowledge there were no Romanian translations around.
I have at different times wondered about psychoanalysis in Cz. but
have not heard about any other analytical practitioners. Freud, Adler
and may be Jung were mentioned by students and others, but no real
discussion groups like the well known Brunneranian groups existed. And
I knew from one of my aunts that she tried some therapy, but that
might have been in Vienna, not Cz. Also Helios Hecht a very gifted
graphologist and friend of Rose Auslaender was surely well acquainted
with Freudian theory.
Going through Anno you can find a series of articles by Wilhelm
Stekel. The redactor of the local Cz. newspaper in which they appeared
(1912/4) was a certain Moritz Stekel, probably a brother.
Sorry, not to be able to provide more information, I surely would have
liked myself to know more.
Best,
Berti
