S. (405) - 434; Illustr.; geheftet. Gutes Ex.; leichte Gebrauchsspuren. - Englisch. - The Use of the House-Tree-Person Test in a Case of Marital Discord JOHN N. BUCK Lynchburg State Colony, Virginia. // In the winter of 1947, Mrs. Edna Deacon (nee: Thomas) 1 was referred for advice concerning her marital difficulties. She asked that an attempt be made to determine whether or not there was any chance of her problems being resolved satisfactorily and without recourse to frank separation. Two things were soon apparent: (a) that she was deeply chagrined at her failure to make a success of her marriage; and (b) she knew surprisingly little about the man to whom she had been married for nearly a decade, and by whom she had had two sons. In the first several interviews it developed that Mrs. Deacon was a badly disturbed individual; that while her husband, Prince Deacon, offered no objection to his wife's consulting a psychologist, he had no intention of seeking counsel for himself-ultimately, however, he did consent to two diagnostic interviews. HISTORIES: Edna Deacon was born in 1916 (at full term and without injury) to Professor and Mrs. Thomas, who were then 48 and 27 years of age, respectively. Edna was their second child and second daughter; later they had two sons. Mrs. Thomas, who was born in the Far East, was the daughter of teachers. She came to the United States to acquire a higher education. Here she was a pupil of Professor Thomas, whom she married after her graduation from college. She found sexual relations highly distasteful; spent most of her honeymoon being "ill". She once told Edna that she endured coitus only because she wanted very much to have children and she knew no other way of becoming pregnant. Edna's musical education, like that of her sister and brothers, was extensive, intensive and expensive; and this expenditure of funds (so essential to the culture-minded Mrs. Thomas) meant that the family was constantly teetering on the brink of financial disaster-a fact of which the children were acutely aware. Mrs. Thomas ruled her four children dictatorially; for example, she had always felt that a string-quartet was an ideal medium for expressing music, so nothing would do but that her four children become a string quartet! .
