Freud has always been interested in China. The collections in his library include "Early Chinese Jade" by British writer Una Pope-Hennessy, and "The Birth of China" by American sinologist Creel Herrlee Glessner in 1923, which is a census record of the formation period of Chinese civilization.
Freud was proud that his works had been translated into Chinese during his lifetime. The 1933 Chinese version of "Lectures on Psychoanalysis" was translated by Gao Juefu (1896-1993), a pioneer of Chinese psychoanalysis and psychology, and is also one of his collections.

Freud and the Epidemic
On January 25, 1920, Freud’s daughter Sophie Halberstadt-Freud (Sophie Halberstadt-Freud) Died during her third pregnancy from complications caused by the Spanish Flu.
More than 100 years later, an epidemic has also occurred. The Freud Museum and staff from five hospitals in London have jointly organized a series of themed exhibitions on Freud and the epidemic.
seems to share with everyone the trauma and struggle of this psychologist in the same situation a hundred years ago. It is better to accept the ruthless laws of nature than to accept the chance that may not happen or should not happen.
