==Life==
Beata Minzer was born on February 16, 1886 in [[Neusandetz]] near [[Krakow]], Poland, then part of the [[Austrian-Hungarian Empire]].<ref name=IDP/> Her aunt instroduced her to [[Otto Rank]], who was stationed in Krakow editing the ''Krakauer Zeitung'' from 1916-18. They married in a Jewish wedding ceremony on November 7, 1918, days before the end of [[World War I]]. The couple moved to [[Vienna]] soon afterwards, where Otto took her to present to [[Sigmund Freud]] as a sort of 'court presentation'.<ref name="GeissmannGeissmann2005"></ref> Their only child, Helene, was born in August 1919.
Though Freud's initial impression of Beata Rank had been unfavourable - "a little Polish-Jewish wife whom no-one finds congenial and who betrays no higher interests" – he soon revised his opinion.<ref name="Gay1998"></ref>
She became [[Freud]]'s hostess for social events, entertaining visitors like [[Lou Andreas-Salomé]].<ref name="Lieberman2010"></ref> She attended lectures and seminars on psychoanalysis. Like Anna Freud – who felt some rivalry towards her – she took dictation from Freud in the publication of ''Imago''.<ref name="GeissmannGeissmann2005"/> In 1923 she translated [[Freud]]'s ''On Dreams'' – an abridged version of ''[[The Interpretation of Dreams]]'' – into Polish. A 1923 paper on the role of women in the development of human society, which integrated Freud's theory of [[Oedipal confict]] with [[Bachofen]]'s' [[mother-right]] theory,<ref>J. C. F., [https://ift.tt/2UIhdjW Applied Psycho-Analysis: Beata Rank. Zur Rolle der Frau in der Entwicklung der menschlichen Gesellschaft. Imago, 1924, Vol. X, p. 278], ''[[The International Journal of Psychoanalysis]]'', Vol. 7, p. 89.</ref> gained her entry to the [[Vienna Psychoanalytical Society]].<ref name=IDP/>
Beata Rank always kept a good personal relationship with Freud. However, her emphasis on the importance of women may well have encouraged Otto Rank's increasing theoretical emphasis on the [[mother-child relationship]], an element in what became his split from Freud.ref name="GeissmannGeissmann2005"> Otto started visiting the [[United States]] in 1924, though Beata did not want to move there. After his break from Freud, the couple compromised by moving [[Paris]] in 1926. There she continued researching the role of women, using the [[Bibliotheque Nationale]]. In 1933 she worked with Otto as an adminstrator for the Summer Institute of his Psychological Center, but in 1934 he left her.<ref name=IDP/>
Beata Rank remained in Paris with her daughter until 1936, when they emigrated to [[Boston]]. The Boston psychoanalytic community included her old friends [[Helene Deutsch|Helene]] and [[Felix Deutsch]]. She worked there as a [[child analyst]] and as a training analyst at the [[Boston Psychoanalytic Institute]].<ref name=IDP/>
Beata Rank died on April 11, 1961.<ref name=IDP/>
