História biográfica
Claud Dangar Daly was born on 25 Feb 1884 into a military family in New Zealand where his parents had emigrated. When his parents separated in 1899 he was sent to school in Newport. At the age of fifteen he volunteered for the South African war by exaggerating his age. Apart from a brief period on his return to England in 1902 when he took up nursery gardening, Daly continued to serve in the military for most of his life, seeing action in India and, during the First World War, in France. In 1916 he suffered a nervous breakdown and returned to London where he underwent a brief analysis with Ernest Jones. He is best known for his meticulous self-analysis of his dreams and his interest in Hindu mythology and symbolism, which are reflected in this collection. He began to publish articles on these subjects in 1921. In 1920 he visited Vienna and was analysed by Freud and then Ferenczi from 1925. In 1936 he retired from the Army and returned to Vienna to work further with Freud. He also took his first patients there. He left Austria in 1938 and was an air raid warden in London during the Second World War. He was married twice, to Gertrude Hogan in 1917 (d. 1934) and Elenore Graefin Vetter von der Lilie in 1947. He died of a heart attack on 4 Sep 1950.
