from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Life

Erzsébet Révész studied medicine in Budapest and specialized in neurology and psychiatry. She worked as a neurologist in Hungary and in 1917 became a guest of the Vienna Psychoanalytical Association (WPV). In 1918 she came to Vienna all the way to do a psychoanalysis with Sigmund Freud . On April 17, 1918, she was accepted into the Vienna Psychoanalytic Association. In September 1918 Révész took part in the 5th International Psychoanalytic Congress in Budapest as a member of the Hungarian group. The Hungarian Psychoanalytic Association did not hold any meetings during the First World War . In March 1919, Erzsébet Révész gave a lecture on the "Psychoanalysis of a Kleptomania Case" at the Budapest Association. Also in 1919 she married the Hungarian psychoanalyst Sándor Radó . Radó was the secretary of the Budapest group. Erzsébet Radó-Révesz worked in Budapest as a successful training psychoanalyst. In February 1921 she became the librarian of the Association Library of the Budapest Group. In 1922, two more lectures followed in the Budapest psychoanalytic association with the topics "A case of menstrual depression" and "On the phylogenesis of the globus hystericus." In 1923, Erzsébet Radó-Révész became a patient of Sándor Ferenczi and completed another psychoanalysis with him. After the death of her father, Radó-Révész, who was six months pregnant, fell into progressive pernicious anemia. When the patient had only 600,000 red blood cells, a caesarean section was performed. Erzsébet Radó-Révész only survived this caesarean section by two days. The child died after eight days. Her husband was in Berlin during this time. Erzsébet Radó-Révész was one of the most hopeful members of the Budapest group. Her psychoanalytic life's work remained incomplete due to her early death.

The Hungarian psychoanalyst Imre Hermann (1889–1984) completed his training analysis with Radó-Révész. After her sudden death, he moved to Sándor Ferenczi.
