Wilfred Abse
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
David Wilfred Abse (15 March 1915 – 4 November 2005) was a Welsh psychiatrist.
Abse was born in Cardiff, a brother of the poet Dannie Abse (1923–2014) and the politician Leo Abse (1917–2008). An eminent psychoanalyst, Abse spent the greater part of his career in Charlottesville, Virginia where he was a professor of psychiatry at the University of Virginia from 1962 until 2000.[1] Abse was known for his work in group therapy and hysteria, and contributed to the Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease.[2] It was said that his younger brother Leo got his habit of Freudian allusion in his speeches from Wilfred.[3]
