The Frankfurt Institute of Psychoanalysis housed itself within the Institute of Social Research.
Evidence
The opening of the Frankfurt Institute of Psychoanalysis, with Karl Landauer and Heinrich Meng as its directors, and Frieda Fromm-Reichmann and Erich Fromm as lecturers, was the realization of a plan formed by the Heidelberg circle around Frieda Reichmann in 1926. As a result of a whole network of personal connections between Erich Fromm, Frieda Reichmann, Leo Lowenthal, Max Horkheimer and Karl Landauer, the Frankfurt Institute of Psychoanalysis (the second to be set up in Germany, following the one in Berlin) was accommodated in offices at the Institute of Social Research. This was the first, even if only indirect, connection between psychoanalysis and a university, and it was followed in 1930 by the highly controversial award of the Goethe Prize to Freud, a public recognition of the founder of psychoanalysis by the city of Frankfurt. β Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 214
