THE INTERNATIONAL PSYCHO-ANALYTICAL LIBRARY EDITED BY ERNEST JONES, M. D. No. 41 ESSAYS IN APPLIED PSYCHO ANALYSIS BY ERNEST JONES, M. D. VOL. II ESSAYS IN FOLKLORE, ANTHROPOLOGY AND RELIGION THE HOGARTH PRESS LTD 40-42 WILLIAM IV STREET LONDON W. C. AND THE INSTITUTE OF PSYCHO-ANALYSIS I9SI Simone Martini The Annunciation PUBLISHED BY The Hogarth Press Ltd and The Institute of Psycho-Analysis LONDON Clarke, Irwin Co. Ltd TORONTO SECOND IMPRESSION PRINTED IN GREAT BRITAIN BY EBENEZER BAYLIS SON, LTD., WORCESTER ALL RIGHTS RESERVED PREFACE THE essays in this volume are grouped into those dealing with Folklore, Anthropology and Religion respectively. My acknowledg ments are due to the publishers concerned for permission to re-issue them. Chapters IX and X, containing an explanation of the success of Christianity over its rivals which I have not encountered elsewhere, have not been previously printed. When Freud was publishing the translation of his Moses and Mono theism he wondered what reception it would have in England, which he thought was still the most religiously-minded country. I suggested he insert into the preface something on the lines of the following paragraph, but on reflection he decided it was not necessary. In no other European country has so much tolerance been shown towards the discoveries of psycho-analysis as in England. This is in accord with her profound trust in the importance of freedom of thought. And for some centuries now it has also been the English tradition that frank and sincere discussion of theological and religious problems is to be included in this freedom indeed, historically it was the origin of it.

That the present is the first occasion on which the matter has been brought to their direct attention cannot, I think, be the main explanation of this remarkable neglect. I should regard it rather as one more manifestation of the anti-psychological bias that prevails among scholars and men of science. In their laudable endeavour to emerge from the subjective pre-scientific era they have naturally tended to confound objectivity with the study of the outer world, and to identify contemplation of the mind with subjectivity. This attitude has proved eminently successful in so far as the investigation of physical phenomena that are unin fluenced by mental processes is concerned, or at least the drawbacks attaching to it have hitherto been relatively in considerable and are only now beginning to be perceived, but the limitations it imposes on the study of phenomena which are the product of mental processes are so grave as to confinesuch studies to a preliminary charting out of the ground. This is evident when we consider the material studied in folklore, whether it be customs, beliefs, or folk songs, for without exception it is the product of dynamic mental processes, the response of the folk soul to either outer or inner needs, the expression of various longings, fears, aversions, or desires.
