Abstract

Danish Psychoanalytic Society was founded 1957 by Nils Nielsen, Thorkil Vanggaard and Erik Bjerg Hansen. The paper has as a starting point, the publications by the three founders, and they show that all three were classical psychoanalysts, however, that the group never managed to organise a training. Mentally Vanggaard seemed to have functioned in the phallic-narcissistic position, and due to this fact he was incapable of transmitting psychoanalysis in such a way that it made to the interest growing. The other two, seemed to have been better to function in a psychoanalytical position, and thus they contributed to starting the organisation of the psychoanalytical training. Still,
they were unable to prevent Vanggaard to give ‘psychotherapy ad modum Vanggaard’ for being psychoanalysis, and therefore the development of clinical psychoanalysis was delayed in Denmark.
