Abstract

The Record Group RG-08, Dr. Ernst Simmel, Papers, 1908 -- 1947, comprises collections and sub-collection related to his professional and public activities in German and in America.

By and large, we may relate the German period as the one that is represented by Dr. Simmel's professional narratives published in international psychoanalytic periodicals, his organizational work as a Director of Sanitarium Schloss Tegel in Berlin, his professional teaching and research work in the Psychoanalytic Institute in Berlin, as well as his international scientific participation in conferences and like.

Dr. Simmel's American period, 1935 --1938, connotes profound difference from that one of Germany. He becomes the organizer leader and protector of the rising psychoanalytic movement in the West Coast of America.

He has taken upon himself a burden of multi-functional tasks, not always plausible in terms of accomplishing. However, Dr. Simmel being the Captain the Pilot or in official language President of the Psychoanalytic Study Group of Los Angeles in 1935 -- 1944, has laid the foundation of Psychoanalysis as the new Science in the Los Angeles. The later evolved psychoanalytic institutions inherited and ramified the fundamentals of Psychoanalytic Science organized and steered up by Dr. Ernst Simmel.

The German period represented in the Record Group largely by publications, then the American period overall comprises correspondences between Dr. Simmel and other scholars or officials as well as his narrative in the theme of Psychoanalysis in English language.

A separate theme of these collections is Dr. Simmel multi-vectorial activity as President of the Psychoanalytic Study Group of Los Angeles. In this regard, the collections well represent numerous records of scientific, business, council and other periodic gathering of the members of the Psychoanalytic Study Group of Los Angeles.

Dr. Simmel left a large corpus of personal and official correspondences, overall in English language with a number of correspondences in German language.

All in all, this Record Group of Dr. Ernst Simmel is of the immense historical value would it be scholarship, teaching, training or merely the History of Psychoanalysis as the Science.

RG-08.06, A Memo from Dr. Ernst Simmel to Dr. Charles Tidd with to the Appeal of Aid to War Children

Date, January 21, 1941

Document in one page

Content,

Dear Dr. Tidd,

I made a few more inquiries about the problem we discussed at our last council meeting. The question whether we should respond to Mrs. Burlingham’s appeal for money. I enclose a letter from Foster Parents Plan for War Children, from which you will see that the money is really needed.

It is needed for a recuperation center for women and children (conducted by Anna Freud) who have lost their homes as a consequence of the bombardment.

Via Erikson I learned that Anna Freud and Mrs. Dorothy Burlingham intend to use this opportunity to study Shell-Shock in children. Of course they do not wish any publicity about this project s people might think that he humanitarian goal is only secondary.

My opinion is that the Study Group should respond to this appeal. I am enclosing a draft for the appeal. Please comment on the idea and get in touch with the other members of the council to get their opinion on the matter.

Thanks, Sincerely Yours, Dr. Ernst Simmel

Collection Historical Note

SIMMEL, ERNST (1882-1947)

Neurologist and psychoanalyst Ernst Simmel was born on April 4, 1882, in Breslau, Germany (now Wroclaw, Poland) and died in Los Angeles on November 11, 1947.

From a Jewish background, Simmel was the youngest of nine children. His father, Siegfried, was a banker; his mother, Johanna, managed an employment agency for domestic servants.

What are we to do now when we have lost Ernst Simmel and leadership?

We want to continue to follow the spirit of his leadership, to identify ourselves with him and his constructive plans."

After studying medicine and psychiatry in Berlin and Rostock, Simmel received his medical degree in 1908; his dissertation concerned the psychogenic etiology of dementia praecox. Early in his career he worked as a general practitioner in Berlin. During World War I, however, he served as military doctor and chief of a hospital for psychiatric battle casualties in Posen. There he introduced the use of psychodynamic principles; at the time, he was still self-taught in psychoanalysis.

Returning to Berlin after the war, Simmel underwent a didactic analysis with Karl Abraham in 1919. Together with Abraham and Max Eitington, he helped establish the Berlin Psychoanalytic Institute in 1920. He served as president of the Berlin Psychoanalytic Society from 1926 to 1930, and founded and served as chief physician of the Tegel sanitarium Schloss Tegel, outside Berlin, in 1927. The sanatorium, the first ever designed to employ psychoanalytic principles in treating patients who might benefit from observation, went bankrupt and closed in 1931.

In 1910, Simmel married Alice Seckelson, and the couple would have two sons. In 1929 he married his second wife, Hertha Brüggemann.

Simmel, a liberal who had helped to found the Society of Socialist Physicians and served as its president from 1924 to 1933, ran afoul of Nazi authorities soon after Hitler came to power in 1933. Emigrating to the United States in 1934, he moved to Los Angeles after a brief period at the Topeka Psychoanalytic Institute. He was instrumental in founding the Los Angeles Psychoanalytic Institute soon after the Second World War; he also helped establish the San Francisco Psychoanalytic Society, and served as its first president.

Simmel published both clinical and theoretical papers. On the Psychoanalysis of War Neuroses (1921) became a classic. His 1927 lecture at the Innsbruck Congress on the use of psychoanalytic principles in treating institutionalized patients was also highly original. A major theoretical contribution is "Self-Preservation and the Death Instinct," published in 1944. Another significant contribution to theory was Simmel's hypothesis concerning the existence of pre-oedipal anal libido, germane to certain psychosomatic and psychotic disorders. These ideas would find resonance in the work of Melanie Klein, Wilfred Bion, and Donald Meltzer.

Simmel also published some thirty original works on social issues, clinical problems, and matters of mental health policy. He is important both as a founder of the institutions noted above and for establishing a place for psychoanalysis in health care and suggesting its applications to clinical medicine. Many of his works concern psychosomatic medicine, including his "Über die Psychogenese von Organstörungen und ihre psychoanalytische Behandlung" (The Psychogenesis of Organic Disturbances and Their Psychoanalytic treatment") from 1931. He edited the anthology Anti-Semitism. A Social Disease, published in 1946. Psychoanalyse und ihre Anwendungen [Psychoanalysis and its applications], a collection of numerous abstracts, lectures, and unpublished manuscripts, appeared in 1993.

Dr. David Brunswick, one of the founders of the Psychoanalytic Study Group of Los Angeles, friend and colleague of Dr. Ernst Simmel in December 1947, in his speech in Memoriam of Dr. Ernst Simmel, has said,

"I first met Ernst Simmel at his psychoanalytic sanitarium at Schloss Tegel in Berlin in the Spring of 1930. He impressed me as a very friendly man, with dignity and a great deal of energy and vey intelligent.

Early in 1933, after National Socialists in Germany had begun persecuted Jews, it soon appeared that Germany would lose a great number of its professional for their only Jewish origin.

A small group of us, psychoanalysts practicing in Los Angeles, the nucleous of the Psychoanalytic Study Group, decided to invite one of the German psychoanalyts to settle here to help us learn more and to help bring order and organization into the psychoanalytic field in Los Angeles.

I thought at once of Simmel. Franz Alexander in Chicago and Professor Paul Epstein, Dr. Hans Sachs deicisively backed up our choice of Simmel.

We invited Dr. Simmel and after the usual vicissitudes of escape from Nazi Germany and trouble over the United States immigration visa, he and his wife and their two-year-old son arrived in Los Angeles at the end of April 1934 and rom that time I counted him among my friends.

We were never disappointed in Dr. Simmel' abilities and he organized for us and led our Psychoanalytic Study Group and then also when the time was ripe, the San Francisco Psychoanalytic Society, the Los Angeles Psychoanalytic Society and the Los Angeles Institute for Psychoanalysis. We must blame ourselves, I believe, for the fact that he was not able to found here two other organizations, namely a psychoanalytic clinic and a psychoanalytic sanitarium, both much needed and both so dear to him."

Additional bibliographic notes,

in 1913 he began his private practice in general medicine. He chose a modest suburb of Berlin, because he was not interseted in a lucrtive practice. It is noteworthy that the young physician, whose medical thinking had been shaped by the exlusively organic and descriptive teaching then prevailing, was sufficiently alert and open-minded to recognize the validity fo the Freudean approach and its application to Dementia Praecox, as suggested by Jung. He foresaw that these theories were to open new vistas for research and an understanding of mental phenomena.

In the course of the First World War, he was at first a general medical officer with combat troops. In 1916, he was placed in charge of a special military hospital for war neuroses. It was here that his career as a psychotherapist and psycho-analyst was initiated. He laucned upon a trail-blazing activity, using hyponosis in combination with comprehension of psycho-analytic dynamics in the treatment of soldiers suffering from war neuroses. In essense, the methods used in the Second World War were identical with those initiated by Simmel twenty-five years earlier. It is a striking commentary on Ernst Simmel's vision, skills and courage that he employed these technicques at a time when this area was truly terra incognita.

His experience in the First World War were summarized in this Paper, The Inter-Relationship of War Neuroses and Mental Trauma -- A Hypno-Analytic Research. For this work, he was awarded the Freud Prize in 1918.

After the war , he returned to Berlin and resumed private practice. From this time on, his career branched out from his own practice of psychiatry and psycho-analysis into research, teaching and organizing on an extensive scale.

Simmel was one of the founder of the Berlin Psycho-Analytic Institute. He was instrumental in developing some of the fundamental principles for trainign psycho-analysts, through participation in the establishment of the first education committee in Berlin, he worked out the initial trainign curriculum. In this connection, he introduced the plan of supervised analyses and case siminars.

In 1927 at Schloss Tegel, near Berlin, Ernst Simmel founded the first sanitarium operating on psycho-analytic principles. As its medical director he not only treated patients psychoanalytically, but also devised methods of occupational therapy based on metapsychological principles. Cases admitted for treatment at this institution included patients suffering from somatic diseases, addictions, border-line schizophrenia and sexual criminal offenders.

Simmel was invited to come to Southern California in 1934 to establish an institute to train psychiatrists in psychoanalysis. Here he became the official representative of the Chicago Psychoanalytic Institute. Herganized the few trained analysts then in California into the Psychoanalytic Study Group of Los Angeles and later he was the organizer of the San Francisco and the Los Angeles Psychoanalytic Societies. He introduced and conducted the first psychoanalytic seminars for teachers and social workers and eventually evolved a program to train psychiatrists in Psychoanalysis.

It was largely due to his efforts that Psychoanalysis achieved scientific approbation in the eyes of the public and of the medical profession in California.

For years he tried to establish a Psychoanalytic Institute in Southern California for training and teaching, as well as for research based on data gathered in psychoanalytic hospital and free clinic.

Unfortunately, circumstances permitted only the establishment of a singel department of such an institute, namely a school to train psychiatrists in Psychoanalysis. It was one of the disappointments that darkened the last months of his life and his dream of an institute to further and safeguard the Psychoanalytic Movement in Southern California was not realized.

Simmel's scientific publications number more than sixty. The problem with wchich he was chiefly concerned can be classified under the following headings,

-war neuroses,

- institutiona psychoanalytic treatment,

-therapy for psychoses,

-the psychogenesis for organic diseases,

--psycho-somatic medicine,

- application of psychoanalysis in criminology,,

-varia
