Sabina Spielrein 1904 Spielrein came to Jung as a patient after her admission to the Burghölzli clinic in Zurich in 1904; he treated her there, and she later became his student and colleague.

Sabina Spielrein 1912 In Die Destruktion als Ursache des Werdens Spielrein observes that Jung sets ideas of death in opposition to sexual ideas rather than in accord with them, whereas her own thesis places destruction within the sexual drive itself.
Lou Andreas-Salomé 1916 In »Anal« und »Sexual« Andreas-Salomé criticises Jung’s desexualised libido: by placing the essence of sexuality outside sexuality itself, she argues, he lets the old dualism back in and sides with the older theory that condemned sex.
