Beschreibung:
Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) was the Austrian founder of psychoanalysis, a method for psychological therapy and a theory of human nature. His conception of the unconscious, of the relevance of dreams, and of the role played by our drives for pleasure and aggression as well as his trenchant critique of culture shape our self-understanding to this day.
The Interpretation of Dreams is a book by Sigmund Freud. The first edition was first published in German in November 1899 as Die Traumdeutung (though post-dated as 1900 by the publisher). The publication inaugurated the theory of Freudian dream analysis, which activity Freud famously described as "the royal road to the understanding of unconscious mental processes".
