In Erik Erikson’s Verbal Portraits: Luther, Gandhi, Einstein, Jesus, Donald Capps contends that Erikson’s portraits of respective historical figures make a highly creative contribution to psychoanalytic discourse. Although he reluctantly abandoned his youthful aspirations to become an artist, his artistic sensitivities and skills played a critical role in the development of his multifaceted conception of identity.
