Otto Rank
Otto Rank, Sohn des jüdischen Kunsthandwerkers Simon Rosenfeld, studierte 1908 Germanistik und klassische Philologie an der Universität Wien, wurde 1912 mit der Arbeit Die Lohengrinsage zum Dr. phil. promoviert und befasste sich mit vergleichender Kulturgeschichte und Mythologie. Er war einer der engsten Vertrauten Sigmund Freuds und Förderer der Psychoanalyse. Rank wurde Sekretär der Wiener Psychoanalytischen Vereinigung und war von 1912 bis 1924 Mitherausgeber der internationalen Zeitschrift Imago. Im Jahre 1919 gründete er in Wien den Internationalen Psychoanalytischen Verlag, den er bis 1924 leitete. Sein Hauptwerk Das Trauma der Geburt und seine Bedeutung für die Psychoanalyse (1924) führte zur Entfremdung von Freud. Rank ging 1926 nach Paris und 1933 in die USA; er ließ sich 1936 als Psychotherapeut in New York nieder. Er war seit 1918 mit der Kinderanalytikerin Beata Minzer verheiratet, sie hatten eine Tochter.[1] 1934 wurde die Ehe geschieden. In den 1930er-Jahren unterhielt er eine intensive Beziehung mit der Schriftstellerin Anaïs Nin, die sich auch in deren Tagebüchern niederschlug. Rank begründete die Casework-Schule, die die Therapie zeitlich begrenzte. Ende Oktober 1939 starb Otto Rank im Alter von 55 Jahren in New York City.
