Apuntes para una biografía de Bela Székely (1892-1955)
Abstract
A pesar de su vasta actividad periodística y académica, son escasos los datos que el psicoanalista, periodista y psicólogo Bela Székely dejó acerca de su vida personal y profesional. La reconstrucción de su biografía parece un rompecabezas con piezas procedentes de diferentes fuentes, que más de una vez resultan contradictorias. En este trabajo se reúne información disponible en castellano, alemán y húngaro, con el fin de permitir que futuras investigaciones sobre la vida y la obra de esta figura multifacética se asienten sobre una base histórica fiable. Más allá de los datos biográficos sobre Bela Székely, el trabajo aborda en detalle los primeros años de su estadía en la Argentina (1938-1942), período en el cual su destino profesional se entrelazó con desarrollos cruciales en el campo “psi” argentino.
Despite his extensive journalistic and academic activity, the analyst, journalist and psychologist Bela Székely left very few data about his personal and professional life. The reconstruction of his biography seems a puzzle with pieces coming from different sources that more than once result contradictory. This paper gathers information available in Spanish, German and Hungarian in order to place future research on the life and work of this multifaceted figure upon a reliable historical background. The early years of his stay in Argentina (1938-1942) will be discussed in detail. It is a period in which the professional fate of Bela Székely is intertwined with crucial developments in the psychoanalytic and psychological fields in Argentina.
