| description | At the beginning of the 1930s, in Barcelona, when sexuality became a promising scientific theme in Spain, a young Hungarian psychologist, Oliver Brachfeld, questioned the sexual theories of the famous endocrinologist Gregorio Marañón, twenty years older than him. The publication of a very critical account of Dr. Marañón’s flagship book published in Madrid in 1929, The intersexual states in the human species, in the Medical Review of Barcelona, then the edition of a small volume, Polemic against Marañón in 1933, give rise to a real controversy around the “intersexuality”. Two conceptions and two methods of approaching sexuality then clash, those of psychology and biology. Brachfeld, while rejecting Freudian psychoanalysis, strives to show that the theory of his eldest is now out of date on the scientific level. |
