Entitled, The importance of being Ernst: a reassessment of E.H. Gombrich's relationship with psychoanalysis the thesis drew upon previously unpublished primary material to radically rethink the twentieth-century art historian's relationship to the psychology as a broad field.
The piece was published by the Journal of Art Historiography in December 2012, and can be read here.
