Sigmund Freud

On Dreams (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Central to Sigmund Freud's philosophy on psychoanalysis is the idea that dreams give a window into one's unconscious desires. This is the principal argument of his groundbreaking work "The Interpretation of Dreams", published in 1899. However, realizing the incredibly technical and dense nature of that more detailed work, Freud felt that a simpler and more accessible derivation of his theories was necessary in order to popularize his ideas and to make them more understandable to the average person. "On Dreams", published in 1901 and translated into English in 1914, is the result of that endeavor and it is executed with masterful effect. "On Dreams" is a straightforward and simplified explanation of Freud's theories on dreams and their meanings, such as condensation, dramatization, displacement, repression, the three classes of dreams, and how dreams are affected by the events of the previous day. "On Dreams" serves as a great place to start for those who wish to learn more about the meanings of their own dreams, as well as how Freud's influential and important ideas helped to form the field of psychoanalysis.

Autorenporträt

Sigmund Freud, an Austrian neurologist who lived from 6 May 1856 to 23 September 1939, founded psychoanalysis, a therapeutic approach that involves a patient and a psychoanalyst in a conversation to assess and treat psychiatric diseases. At Vienna General Hospital, Lucian Freud started his medical training in 1882 and began researching the effects of medications on the human body. His study of brain anatomy resulted in the publishing of a significant paper on cocaine's painkilling properties in 1884. His first work, On Aphasia: A Critical Study, was based on research on aphasia and was released in 1891. Freud left his hospital position in 1886 and started a private clinic where he focused on "nervous disorders." In that same year, he wed Martha Bernays, a descendant of Hamburg's head rabbi Isaac Bernays. In his mouth, Freud had a leukoplakia in 1923, a benign growth connected to excessive smoking. He was encouraged to stop smoking by dermatologist Maximilian Steiner, who lied about the significance of the development. By the middle of September 1939, Freud was suffering from jaw cancer, which was making his agony worse. Max Schur persuaded Anna Freud that keeping him alive was futile. On the morning of September 23, 1939, at about three in the morning, he gave Freud dosages of morphine that caused his death.
