Life

Wulff was the son of a trader. He attended the Lycée Richelieu in Odessa and a business school. From 1900 he studied medicine at the University of Berlin , and received his psychiatric training from Friedrich Jolly and Emanuel Mendel . In 1905 he received his doctorate under Theodor Drag . In 1908 Wulff became an assistant to the psychiatrist Otto Juliusburger in Lankwitz , who introduced him to psychoanalysis, a colleague there was Karl Abraham . Wulff did not complete a training analysis . He returned to Odessa in 1909, where he opened a medical practice and translated Sigmund Freud's writings into Russian. In 1911, Wulff became a corresponding member of the Vienna Psychoanalytical Association with the essay Contributions to Infantile Sexuality . Before the outbreak of World War I in 1914, he went to Moscow and was drafted into the front as a military doctor.

After the Russian Revolution, Wulff worked at a military psychiatric hospital in Moscow. In 1922 he founded the "Psychoanalytical Research Association for Artistic Creativity" with Ivan Ermakov , Otto Schmidt and five other people. With his participation, the Russian Psychoanalytic Society (RPV) was founded in 1923, with Vera Schmidt and Pavel Blonsky involved , and in 1924 the various local organizations were united in the Russian Institute for Psychoanalysis. In 1925 Wulff became a lecturer in psychoanalysis and psychotherapy at the 2nd University Clinic of Moscow University . The initiatives to establish psychoanalytic research and practice in the Soviet Union, however, were pushed back after Lenin's death in 1924.

Wullf was persecuted politically, expropriated and emigrated to Berlin in 1927, where he found work at the Schloss Tegel sanatorium founded by Ernst Simmel until 1930 . The transfer of power to the National Socialists in 1933 forced him to emigrate again. In Palestine he founded in 1934 with Max Eitingon the "Psychoanalytic Association of Palestine," he was after his death from 1943 to 1953, his successor in the presidency of the "Israel Psycho-Analytical Society," after that honorary. Wullf lectured at Tel Aviv University and now also translated Freud's works into Hebrew.

In addition to training the first generation of Israeli psychoanalysts, Wulff researched childhood and the connection between psychoanalysis and education.
