The manuscript of this important unfinished paper, published posthumously; is dated January 2, 1938, and, according to ErnestJones (1957, 255), it was 'written at Christmas, 1937'. The paper carries further than before the investigation of the ego and its behaviour in difficult circumstances. Two interrelated topics are involved, both of which had latterly been occupying Freud's mind: the notion of the act of 'disavowal' (' Verleugnung') and the notion of that act's resulting in a 'splitting' of the ego. 'Disavowal' was usually discussed by Freud, as it is ·here, in connection with the castration complex. It emer~ed, for instance, in the paper on 'The Infantile. Genital Orgaruzation' (1923e), Standard Ed., 19, 143, where an Editor's footnote gives a number of references to other appearances of the term. One of these is in the short study of 'Fetishism' (1927e), ibid., ll, 155-6, to which the paper before us may be regarded as a sequel. For in that study the splitting of the. ego consequent ~n disavowal was emphasized. (It had been hmted at already m 'Neurosis and Psychosis' ( 1924h), ibid., 19, 152-3.) Though the present paper was, for some unexplained reason, left unfinished by Freud, he took its subject up again a little later, in the last two or three pages of Chapter VIII of his 273 Die Ichspaltung im Abwehrvorgang
