It is indeed true that he never concerned himself with developing an all-embracing system, but rather moved from the analysis of patients to areas of special attention: repression, dreams, the unconscious, sexuality and resistance. Sense of guilt also constituted an area of interest in his work. In his search for an explanation for and the origins of sense of guilt it appears that he did not attempt to construct a definitive theory here either. Despite returning repeatedly to this topic, Freud never wrote a systematic article about this feeling.2 When touching upon sense of guilt, which he did often, he mapped it and indicated its connections to other psychic phenomena and with culture. His point of departure was the individual, and this is striking, not so much against the background of his interests and patient analyses, but because of the dominant tendencies in psychology and philosophy, inasmuch as these dealt with theorizing about man and mind. In the nineteenth century, science (and hence psychology, inasmuch as one may call it a science) tended towards system development which explained “everything”. Psyche, 1846, by Carl Gustav Carus, Philosophie des Unbewußten [Philosophy of the Unconscious], 1869, by Eduard von Hartmann, and also Wilhelm Wundt’s Völkerpsychologie [Folk-Psychology], 1905-1920, are good examples of this. Accordingly Hartmann wrote in the introduction to his book that he saw it as his task to realize a synthesis of the great philosophical systems into a monistic unity.3 This romantic tradition of great systems built around an unambiguous principle did not fail to have its effect on psychoanalysis. Jung, Adler and later Rank, too, are in essence psychoanalysts who express this tradition of system construction and monism. Freud repeatedly distanced himself from these tendencies, not only because there is always an individual case to disprove any system, but also because he believed humans are fundamentally in conflict, because every analytic insight achieved appears also to cloak something else, and because the therapist is never in a position objectively to plumb the deepest emotional depths. Nevertheless, he is in a certain way very much in the tradition of the great theorists. Whether one considers Darwin’s The Descent of Man, Frazer’s The Golden Bough or Breasted’s The Dawn of Conscience, these are all comprehensive works which resonate in Freud’s work. Put another way, although he was certainly interested in “everything”, he did not explain it all by reducing it to a single principle. It 1 S. Freud, On the History of the Psychoanalytic Movement, SE XIV, p.50. 2 “Sigmund Freud never actually wrote a book dedicated entirely to guilt, but the various comments he made on the subject throughout his work make him the true initiator of the study of the sense of guilt and certainly the first person to approach the question systematically.” R. Speziale-Bagliacca, Guilt. Revenge, Remorse and Responsibility after Freud, Brunner-Routledge, Hove/New York, 2004, p.1. 3 E. von Hartmann, Philosophie des Unbewußten. Versuch einer Weltanschauung, Carl Duncker’s Ver- lag, Berlin, 1869, pp.1-4. IX A Dark Trace would be better to say that he placed the unique individual before a background of changing and varied cultures and religions. Freud does not describe systems but areas of attention. With the exception of The Interpretation of Dreams there is not one book which exhaustively explores a single phenomenon. This is why Freud preferred to speak about “fundaments”, “types”, “speculations”, “fantastic hypotheses” and “nuclear complexes” and used words like “fragment”, “project”, “outline”, “formulations”, “observations”, “notes” or “further remarks” in the titles of some of his works. He preferred to direct his attention to the victims (neurotics) of modern culture, to the decisive (small) events which changed history and the great men who were able to influence history. My study on sense of guilt in Freud’s work is not intended to construct or reconstruct a conclusive theory. I am concerned in the first place with describing sense of guilt as an area of attention. My thesis is that sense of guilt is not a secondary theme which appears primarily in Freud’s later work but that in fact it plays a fundamental role in his earlier psychoanalytic work.4 It is via the analysis of sense of guilt that he came to understand the importance of repressed wishes and desires.

These are inevitably intertwined, but can be separated, at least heuristically. The "life" perspective focuses on the founder of psychoanalysis, examining Freud's Jewish background, the significance of his Catholic nanny, the meaning of his beloved collection of antiquities (the gods and goddesses of the past), the impact of Viennese anti,Semitism, and the sources of his personal rejection of religious belief.

    1 ISSN 2693-2490 A Bridge between Psychoanalysis and Neuroscience: An Overview of the Neurobiological Effects of Psychoanalytical Psychotherapy Journal of Psychology and Neuroscience Research Article Diego Cohen, MD. PhD *Correspondence author Diego Cohen, MD. PhD Professor of Psychiatry University of Buenos Aries Medical Collage Professor of Psychiatry University of Buenos Aries Medical Collage Submitted : 17 Jun 2021 ; Published : 1 Jul 2021 Abstract This study sets out to investigate the mechanisms by which psychoanalytical psychotherapy can induce neurobiological changes. From Neuroscience which, in accordance with his thinking at the time, Freud never disregarded, the concepts of neuronal plasticity, enriched environment and the neurobiological aspects of the attachment process. From Psychoanalysis, the theory of transference, M. Mahler’s psychological evolution model, the concept of the regulating function of the self-objects and Winnicott’s holding environment concept. Together these provide a useful bridge toward the understanding of the neurobiological changes resulting from psychoanalytical psychotherapy. One concludes that psychoanalytical psychotherapy, through transference, acts as a new model of object relation and learning which furthers the development of certain brain areas, specifically, the right hemisphere, and the prefrontal and limbic cortices, which have a regulating function on affects.
