Summary: "Eine Kindheitserinnerung des Leonardo da Vinci" by Sigmund Freud is a psychoanalytical examination written in the early 20th century. Freud delves into the childhood experiences of the renowned artist and scientist Leonardo da Vinci, exploring the psychological implications of his memories and how they shaped his development as a creative genius. The work aims to uncover the relationship between da Vinci's early experiences and his later artistic and scientific pursuits, emphasizing the interplay of personal history and broader cultural context. The opening of this work introduces the premise that psychoanalytic research, typically focused on weaker subjects, can yield insights even from great figures like da Vinci. Freud opens with reference to a peculiar memory that da Vinci claimed to have from infancy, involving a vulture opening his mouth with its tail. Freud considers this memory’s veracity and suggests it might not reflect a true recollection but instead a later-constructed fantasy, a common trait in human memory. He ponders the meanings behind this memory, linking it to da Vinci's artistic and scientific inquiries about nature and flight. Throughout this analysis, Freud sets the stage for a deeper investigation into the psychological implications of da Vinci's experiences, suggesting that his early memories and resultant fantasies may heavily influence his approach to art, knowledge, and the exploration of natural phenomena.
