He is also the author of A Primer of the Psychoanalytic Work of Herbert Silberer: What Silberer Said (Routledge). Herbert Silberer was an early member of Freud’s Vienna Group, whose unique body of work was dismissed after his expulsion from the psychoanalytic community. Silberer died in 1923, at the age of 40.

"In this engaging and ground-breaking book, Dr Corliss rescues and revives an important but unfortunately marginalized thinker whose voice has been neglected in the evolution of psychoanalytic thought. Dr Corliss’ scholarship restores Herbert Silberer’s prescient work on dreams, enriching our understanding of psychoanalysis and linking it to its contemporary developments. This passionate, enlightening work will be of value to anyone interested in the history of psychoanalysis and in the science and mysteries of dream life." — Stanton Marlan, President of the Pittsburgh Society of Jungian Analysts, USA"Der Traum is an excellent introduction to the unique world of Silberer and an exceptional approach to our present-day knowledge on dreams. It is a fascinating work indeed." — Júlia Gyimesi, Senior Lecturer, Pázmány Péter Catholic University, Hungary and Director, Theoretical Psychoanalysis PhD Program, University of Pécs, Hungary
