Dora lived with her parents, who had a loveless marriage, but one which took place in close concert with another couple, Herr and Frau K, who were friends of Dora's parents. The crisis that led her father to bring Dora to Freud was her accusation that Herr K had made a sexual advance to her, at which she slapped his fa...

Freud initially thought of calling the case "Dreams and Hysteria", and it was as a contribution to dream analysis, a pendent to his Interpretation of Dreams, that Freud saw the rationale for publishing the fragmentary analysis.Ida (Dora) recounted two dreams to Freud. In the first: house was on fire. My father was sta...

Mother wanted to stop and save her jewel-case; but Father said: 'I refuse to let myself and my two children be burnt for the sake of your jewel-case.' We hurried downstairs, and as soon as I was outside I woke up.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dora_(case_study)
The second dream is substantially longer: I was walking about in a town which I did not know. I saw streets and squares which were strange to me. Then I came into a house where I lived, went to my room, and found a letter from Mother lying there.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dora_(case_study)
She wrote saying that as I had left home without my parents' knowledge she had not wished to write to me to say Father was ill. "Now he is dead, and if you like you can come." I then went to the station and asked about a hundred times: "Where is the station?"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dora_(case_study)
I always got the answer: "Five minutes." I then saw a thick wood before me which I went into, and there I asked a man whom I met. He said to me: "Two and a half hours more."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dora_(case_study)
He offered to accompany me. But I refused and went alone.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dora_(case_study)
I saw the station in front of me and could not reach it. At the same time, I had the unusual feeling of anxiety that one has in dreams when one cannot move forward. Then I was at home.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dora_(case_study)
I must have been travelling in the meantime, but I knew nothing about that. I walked into the porter's lodge, and enquired for our flat. The maidservant opened the door to me and replied that Mother and the others were already at the cemetery.

Freud reads both dreams as referring to Ida Bauer's sexual life—the jewel case that was in danger being a symbol of the virginity which her father was failing to protect from Herr K. He interpreted the railway station in the second dream as a comparable symbol. His insistence that Ida had responded to Herr K's advances...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dora_(case_study)
Through the analysis, Freud interprets Ida's hysteria as a manifestation of her jealousy toward the relationship between Frau K and her father, combined with the mixed feelings of Herr K's sexual approach to her. Although Freud was disappointed with the initial results of the case, he considered it important, as it rai...

Freud's case study was condemned in its first review as a form of mental masturbation, an immoral misuse of his medical position. A British physician, Ernest Jones, was led by the study to become a psychoanalyst, gaining "a deep impression of there being a man in Vienna who actually listened to every word his patients ...

By mid-century, Freud's study had gained general psychoanalytic acceptance.

aUI (IPA: ) is a philosophical, a priori language created in the 1950s by W. John Weilgart, Ph.D. (March 9, 1913 – January 26, 1981; born Johann Wolfgang Weixlgärtner, and also known as John W. Weilgart) a philosopher and psychoanalyst originally from Vienna, Austria. He described it as "the Language of Space", connoti...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AUI_(constructed_language)
aUI is built upon a set of proposed universal semantic primes or elements of meaning that are combined – analogous to the atomic elements of the periodic table – to create ‘molecules of meaning.’ Each ‘element of meaning’ is represented by both a morpheme and a phoneme, all of which are motivated by their intuitive rel...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AUI_(constructed_language)
Additionally, short nasal vowels (marked with an asterisk) are used for numerals: Each phoneme also has an ideographic glyph or symbol that represents its meaning. The symbol for "human", /u/ is depicted by the two legs or arms of the human being, also suggesting his dichotomous nature. The "human" may be fulfilled by ...

The letter "r" can be pronounced either as the alveolar trill /r/ or the uvular trill /ʀ/.

Weilgart followed Gottfried Leibniz' proposal for an alphabet of human thought that would provide a universal way to analyze ideas by breaking them down into their component pieces—to be represented by a unique "real" character. In the early 18th century, Leibniz outlined his characteristica universalis, the basic elem...

In particular, he was struck by how double meanings, together with similar sounds in slogans often associated unrelated words into suggestive "stereotyped formulas", "arrest the attention and appeal to the hearts of the national masses" (Hitler, Mein Kampf, 1925). For example, in one of the most repeated political slo...

the word Volk sounds similar to folgt, meaning to follow or obey; Reich also means rich; so the phrase points to a subliminal association: that the populace obeys and follows their leader, who leads them to a wealthy empire. ("Das Volk folgt dem Führer"). Blu-Bo from Blut und Boden (Blood and Soil) was also a key sloga...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AUI_(constructed_language)
(Hail Hitler! - heil also meaning heal, salvation, safe, well). Based on research in semantic conditioning from the 1950s, Weilgart theorized that whereas the conscious mind links synonyms (similar meanings), the subconscious mind associates assonance (similar sounds).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AUI_(constructed_language)
That is, while we think about and distinguish similar-sounding words by their different meanings, we nonetheless feel, especially under stressed or 'crowd think' conditions, that at some level they are (or ought to be) also related in meaning. Alliterative slogans may suggest a link in words unrelated by meaning but re...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagiotherapy

His thesis was that every human being does not have only physical and psychological dimension, but also spiritual dimension (human soul) that has its own scientific laws and it should be subject of scientific research.

He was concerned with the fact that so many patients relapse some time after treatment. He explained it with the fact that they were treated only on mental level, and not on spiritual level. According to his opinion, addiction is basically spiritual issue, so it needs to be treated on spiritual level. == References ==

The museum should “consult experts if necessary and choose the most appropriate and safe control methods for (the) eradication” of the pests.

The implementation of integrated pest management should be done in steps. To begin, a museum should review a floor plan of the building and determine all “doors, windows, water and heat sources, and drains”, as well as all furniture and other objects within the museum. The museum can place traps that have been numbered...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_pest_management_(cultural_property)
Once the traps are in place, they should be monitored. Detailed notes should be made on the finding in the traps, which pests are being trapped, how they are accessing the museum, and what do these trapped pests look for in a food source. After the first few months, the trap placement should be refined to insure the be...

The museum must monitor all of their pest management programs to ensure they are effective. Routine monitoring will provide information about the points of entry, amount of insects, where they reside in the building, and what they are feeding on. With this information, a museum will be able to identify the damaged area...

When traps are placed in a new location in the building they should be checked within the first 48 hours. This will help confirm where the problem areas are located and if adjustments need to be made to the trap locations.

The next step should be weekly and then monthly inspections.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_pest_management_(cultural_property)
The museum should review the data and ask “can we simply remove the pest? are eggs present? what is the least damaging approach to treatment?”. Once a museum have this information written down and confirmed by all those involved in the program, a treatment strategy can be planned and implemented.
