Content and structure area

Scope and content

Newspaper cuttings and other articles collected by Ernest Jones, including items sent by cuttings agencies and his many correspondents. With the exception of the first volume, which appears to have been collated at a later date, the cuttings were pasted into ringbinder volumes which were specially inscribed with the titles shown.

The cuttings demonstrate Jones' wide range of professional interests and reflect early medical, scientific, legal, religious and popular attitudes to psychoanalysis during this period.

The majority of items are from UK publications, including national and local newspapers and academic, medical, professional, political, religious, literary and cultural periodicals, particularly the 'British Medical Journal', 'The Lancet', 'The Times Literary Supplement', 'The Spectator' and 'New Statesman'. A small number of articles are from overseas publications.

All items in these volumes are available to researchers on microfilm.
