Writings
De Mijolla wrote numerous articles and works; he also edited psychoanalytical collections at several publishers, including the three volumes of the International Dictionary of Psychoanalysis.[5]
In a 1987 paper on identification in the family, he highlighted how Sigmund Freud's creativity can be linked with his identification with the prestige of his grandfather.[6]
His article "Freud and the Psychoanalytic Situation on the Screen" stressed the difficulties of representing the psychoanalytic setting in cinematic terms.[7]
