    Summary
    The new edition of the correspondence between Sigmund Freud and Oskar Pfister (Noth 2013) offers new insights on the extraordinary and hitherto not well-known 30-year literary friendship between the Vienna-based founder of psychoanalysis and the Zurich-based founder of pastoral psychology. The selection published by Ernst L. Freud and Heinrich Meng in 1963 by Fischer-Verlag, which also appeared in an English translation that same year published by Basic Books, New York, did not contain all the letters between Freud and Pfister and included only excerpts of some. The discovery of a typescript of the correspondence between Pfister and Freud sheds new light on the friendship between these two men.
