About this ebook

Complete and unabridged, with 60 full-page plates by Lawrence Alma-Tadema, Canaletto and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Jensen's novella of an archaeologist who becomes obsessed with a girl on a Roman relief and believes he meets her in Pompeii, printed with the essay in which Freud takes it apart — his first full reading of a work of literature, published in 1907. The two halves make an argument about how much a writer knows without knowing it. Sixty plates of dream interpretation in painting, from Ingres and Redon to Canaletto, run alongside the text as a visual counterpart to its argument about what the mind knows without knowing it.
