		DORPAT IS A HULK of a man with a thick grey beard who counters his intimidating physical presence with a mellifluous voice, a habit of resting his hand gently on the shoulder of the person to whom he is speaking and a disarming sense of humor.
		As a teenager, Dorpat studied to be a preacher, the same route that not only his father but a grandfather and an older brother took.
		Dorpat's view of contemporary Seattle, however, is an arrested outlook colored by tens of thousands of sepia-toned photographs of the old city, antique images burned into his brain.

		The elementary prototype of such a breach described by Dorpat is the analyst who offers interpretation, often on scanty evidence, and, if the patient does not accept it, regards the patient's objection as "resistance", after which the analyst spends the rest of the hour attempting to overcome this resistance.
		Dorpat lovingly describes the heart of psychoanalytic work, as he conceptualized it, as fostering the analysand's freedom to know his or her own thoughts and have free association, with an emphasis on freedom.
		Dorpat suggests that this is a criterion for freedom rather than control; responses that are primary process derivatives provide evidence that psychoanalysis is taking place, rather that creation of a cul-de-sac caused by gas lighting.

	The Origin of the Livonian War, 1558
		Indeed, Dorpat had paid taxes (or tribute) between 1464 and 1474, and in principle the Bishop and his subjects were willing to resume payment on the disputed borderlands only, in return for an extension of the truce that expired in 1553.
		The failure of Dorpat to pay tribute was merely one of many things that exasperated Ivan, who wanted to break the blockade and to acquire a seaport on the Baltic.
		Ivan insisted that the German episcopal seat of Dorpat was the ancient Russian fortress of Jurjew and that the payment for the use of the long-disputed fields lying between Dorpat and Pskov was in fact a tribute for each person in the diocese.
