Child libido The ego sexuality ID, EGO and SUPEREGO: these are the three essential parts of the human personality. PSYCHIC ENERGY: libido or sexual urges are a physic energy that drives all of human actions. OEDIPUS COMPLEX: all children are sexually attracted to the parents. DREAM ANALYSIS: people dream for a reason, to resolve problems of mind. Freud believed that by analyzing our dreams and memories, we can understand them. The dreams are reflection of our wishes. ‘THE INTERPRETATION OF DREAMS’ ‘THE PSYCHOPATHOLOGY OF EVERYDAY LIFE’ (Freudian sleep) ‘THREE ESSAYS OF THE THEORY OF SEXUALITY’ (sex drives human instincts) A “river o a “stream” of what the person thinks without any logical connection or chronological order. Continuous flow of thoughts and sensations that characterizes the human mind. A lot of thoughts about everything. Freud, Svevo and Joyce used this technique in their works to represent the human mind’s chaos. Nobody thinks in complete, well organised sentences. Sudden passages from one topic to another, from third person first person. Uncompleted sentences. Creation of a style appropriate to convey the complexities and the fragmentations of thought. Passing from one idea to another for free-association. The narration in retrospect, disappearance of the omniscent narrator. Concept of “the time of the mind”. Freud studies led to a new concept of the mind and to the discovery of the power of inconscious, “the true, psychic reality” Stream of consciousness ID, ego and superego Dreams importance Thoughts about sex and human instinct .

2.9 Sigmund Freud Documentary
2.9 – Sigmund Freud Documentary Part One JAMES MAAS: Of all the great figures in psychology, perhaps Sigmund Freud is the most important. ELISABETH YOUNG-BRUEHL: We all speak Freud. Every time we turn around and say, "Oh, he's so anal", or "that person is a control freak," or talk about Freudian slips, or even speculate about the meaning of our dreams. SCOTT BARON: He was intellectual. He was an eccentric. At times, he was an abuser of substances. HAROLD P. BLOOM: I think history has been complex in its relation to Sigmund Freud. He's both valued and devalued. He's idealized and he's denigrated. NARRATOR: In 1938, in his last year of life, Sigmund Freud was old and sick. But his mind was still sharp. SIGMUND FREUD: [text of dialogue] I discovered some important new facts about the unconscious. Out of these findings grew a new science, psychoanalysis. NARRATOR: And with psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud opened the doors to the unconscious, forever changing the view the human mind. [SIGMUND FREUD: Exploring the Unconscious] NARRATOR: The late 1800s marked the end of the Victorian Age, a period of extreme puritanical restrictions. Any expression of human sexuality was considered an outrage. Respectable women only went to their doctors with a chaperone. Personal matters were never discussed in polite society. Professional therapists didn't exist. And people with psychological problems had nowhere to go. Mental patients were treated like outcasts. They were put in asylums and received antiquated, and in some cases, even barbaric care. SOOMO PUBLISHING ssc.webtexts.com Treatments included alternating hot and cold baths, lengthy periods of drug induced sleep, and in some cases, brain surgery that resulted in death.

Perhaps this change has to do with geographers’ enduring engagements with psychoanalytic thought: a conversation that can be traced back to the 1930s and even earlier (see Cameron and Forrester, this book; also Matless 1995). Exchanges between geography and psychoanalysis, moreover, have not been one-sided. For its part, psychoanalytic thought, in its inception, has consistently drawn on geographical ideas to explicate its own concepts and practices. One of the earliest instances of “geography” in Sigmund Freud’s writings is in a love letter written to his fiancée Martha Bernays in 1885.

Sigmund Freud's Experience with the Classics
Classica (Brasil) 24.1/2, 57-72, 2011 Sigmund Freud’s Experience with the Classics Fabio Stok Università di Roma Italia Abstract . Classical culture played an important role in the work of Sigmund Freud and influenced the formation of psychoanalysis. This influence concerned several aspects of Freud’s experience: the personal one, from his adolescent identification with ancient heroes to his emotional bond with Rome and Athens; the intellectual, including his use of authors such as Aristotle and Artemidorus the elaboration of psychoanalytical theory; rhetorical and expositive in his use of classical authors such as Sophocles and Vergil, and in his strategy of identifying thinkers such as Plato and Empedocles as forerunners of his theories. The present article reconstructs the evolu- tion of this strategy, which began in 1900, in conjunction with the definition of the basic concepts of psychoanalysis. Some specific episodes of Freud’s approach to the classics are also examined: his reception of Aristotle’s concept of catharsis, and of the interpretation of this concept given by Bernays; Freud’s interest in Vergil, highlighted by his use of verses from the Aeneid in his works; his conflictual relationship with Rome; the use of Empedocles as a predecessor of the changes that Freud made, in his last years, to the theory of pulsions. KEywords . Freud; catharsis; Aristotle; Vergil; Rome. 1. Anthony Grafton wrote, a few years ago, that «no modern sci- entist has shown more devotion to ancient texts and systematic reading than Sigmund Freud».1 The term ‘devotion’ suggests a long-lasting feel- ing, something to which a man remains faithful over the years.

Cervantes Read by Freud: a Perspective
Athens Journal of History - Volume 3, Issue 4 – Pages 275-296 Cervantes Read by Freud: A Perspective By Francisco López-Muñoz Francisco Pérez-Fernández† Cecilio Álamo‡ Pilar García-García Sigmund Freud felt very attracted throughout his life by Miguel de Cervantes’ works, which led him to become a self-taught of Spanish in order to read Don Quixote. However, Freud cited Cervantes’ work very little along his scientific production. Freud's references to Cervantes and his texts and characters can be mostly found in his voluminous correspondence. There are two revealing epistolary collections that can shed light on the subject that concerns us: a collection of letters sent to Martha Bernays during the period between 1882 and 1886 (The Bridal Letters), and another collection (1871-1881), known as The Youth Letters, linked to his friend Eduard Silberstein. All these mentions are limited to two Cervantine texts: Don Quixote and The Dialogue of the Dogs. Freud and Silberstein founded a secret literary society ("Academia Castellana"), and they usually communicated in Spanish. This article examines the link between Freud and Cervantes and provides some details about the possible influence of the works of the classical Spanish writer on the scientific contributions of the author of psychoanalysis. In some paragraphs of Don Quixote there is a clear Freudian symbolism, whereas in the exemplary novel The Dialogue of the Dogs, a methodological development of psychoanalytic interview can be found which would be raised by Freud almost three hundred years later. Introduction Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) is, perhaps, one of the most famous authors in the history of psychology and psychiatry beyond their academic and scientific limits.
