Abstract

This chapter follows Kris' travels to England and New York. First, he went to present a paper on caricature at the Warburg Institute, the first public presentation of his joint work with Gombrich. A year later, he returned to England as an exile from Vienna, hoping to make London his permanent residence, the Warburg reading room his workshop, and British psychoanalytic circles his new professional community. When Kris arrived at the Warburg Institute in 1937, no prospect existed for publishing the caricature book on the European Continent; he had to look elsewhere. While he remained firmly attached to his contacts within the psychoanalytic movement and the Warburg Institute, Kris found new colleagues and exemplars within John Marshall's network of American social scientists and émigré scholars.
