Biographische Notiz:   Gertrud Bräm (1896-1977) was one of the first women in Switzerland who tried to bridge between the fields of psychoanalysis, pedagogy and social work. After her studies at the University of Zurich, she married the psychiatrist Hans Behn-Eschenburg (1921), a close collaborator of Hermann Rorschach and the author of the doctoral thesis „Psychische Schüleruntersuchungen mit dem Fordeutversuch“ (1921). In the 1920s Gertrud Behn-Eschenburg got a training as a psychoanalyst in Berlin and Vienna, and became a member of the Schweizerische Gesellschaft für Psychoanalyse. As a specialist for “difficult children” she taught at the Soziale Frauenschule in Zurich, the Schweizerische Pflegerinnenschule and the Kindergärtnerinnenseminar. After the death of her first husband (1932) and her second marriage she moved to the canton of Ticino in 1938. From then, she went on to publish sporadically. In 1954 she published her memories on the time with her late husband and Hermann Rorschach under the title “Working with Dr. Hermann Rorschach”.   Inhaltsangabe:   The fonds includes mostly scientific material and correspondence by and to Gertrud Behn-Eschenburgt, which is not directly related to Hermann Rorschach and his Formdeutversuch.
