History
Edoardo Weiss was born in Trieste, Italy in 1889. He studied medicine at the University of Vienna, graduating in 1914. In Vienna, he met Freud who suggested an analysis with Paul Federn. During the First World War, Weiss served as a physician in the Austrian Army. Weiss became the first psychoanalyst to practise in Italy after the First World War. In 1931 he established a group in Rome, which would later become the Italian Psychoanalytic Society. In 1939 he fled fascism, arriving to work at the Menninger Clinic in Topeka, USA. Two years later he joined the Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis. He worked on psychosomatic medicine and remained a follower of Paul Federn. He died on 14 Dec 1970.
