Die Traumdeutung
E. James Lieberman and Robert Kramer wrote in an introduction to a collection of letters between Freud and the psychoanalyst Otto Rank that Rank was impressed by "The Interpretation of Dreams" when he read it in 1905, and was moved to write a critical reanalysis of one of Freud's own dreams. They suggested that it may have been partly this reanalysis that brought Rank to Freud's attention. They noted that it was with Rank's help that Freud published the second edition of "The Interpretation of Dreams" in 1909. The neuropsychoanalyst Mark Blechner argued in "Contemporary Psychoanalysis" that even if one does not agree with Freud's theories, "The Interpretation of Dreams" remains a valuable record of dream texts and an analysis of the mental operations that dreams demonstrate. Art historian and filmmaker Joseph Koerner drew the title of his 2019 film "The Burning Child" from a dream of that title, which opens Chapter 7 of "Interpretation of Dreams."
