What is your subconscious telling you - and why? In his groundbreaking 1899 work, the founder of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud, explores the mysteries of dreams. According to Freud, dreams are puzzles to be solved, with their manifestations of everything from long-forgotten memories to unspoken, hidden desires. Including dozens of case histories and detailed dream analyses, The Interpretation of Dreams remains a fascinating and revealing exploration of the vast and enigmatic human mind.

El término narcisismo procede de la descripción clínica, y fue elegido en 1899, por Paul Näcke para designar aquellos casos en los que el individuo toma como objeto sexual su propio cuerpo, y lo contempla con agrado, lo acaricia y lo besa hasta llegar a una completa satisfacción. Llevado a este punto, el narcisismo constituye una gran perversión que ha acaparado toda la vida sexual del sujeto, cumpliéndose en ella todas las condiciones que nos ha revelado el gran estudio general de las perversiones.

In 1899 Freud wrote a revolutionary work in the new field of Psychoanalysis called, The Interpretation of Dreams.

Zwei Hörbücher in einer Box! 1. "Psychologie der Massen": Was passiert mit dem Individuum, wenn es sich in einer Gruppe wiederfindet? Wie ist es zu erklären, dass intelligente Menschen sich in der Masse zu Dingen hinreißen lassen, die sie als Einzelne niemals tun würden? Gustave le Bon beschrieb 1895 in seinem Standardwerk diese Mechanismen. Es ist erstaunlich und spricht für den Autor, dass die eingängig erklärte Analyse zeitlos wirkt und die Hörer den Eindruck gewinnen, das Buch sei tatsächlich viel jünger. 2. "Massenpsychologie und Ich-Analyse": Was ist eine Masse?

In dem Essay stellt Freud dar, welche psychischen Mechanismen innerhalb von Massenbewegungen wirksam sind. Eine Masse ist nach Freud ein "provisorisches Wesen, das aus heterogenen Elementen besteht, die sich für einen Augenblick miteinander verbunden haben." Er bezieht sich in seinem Text stark auf die Schriften des Soziologen und Psychologen Gustave Le Bon (1841–1931) und referiert zu Beginn auch im Kapitel Le Bons Schilderung der Massenseele größtenteils dessen Arbeit.

Die kulturtheoretische Schrift "Das Unbehagen in der Kultur" gehört zum Alterswerk Sigmund Freuds. Dem allgemeinen naiven Fortschrittsglauben widersprechend und von einem tiefen Kulturpessimismus durchdrungen, formuliert Freud in diesem einflussreichen Text die These, dass der Einzelne im Umfeld der Kultur, in die er integriert ist, dazu gezwungen wird, seine Triebe, insbesondere seinen Sexualtrieb und seinen Aggressionstrieb, zu unterdrückt.

This compilation contains 200 quotes from these two giants of psychoanalysis.

A superb book for dipping in and out of, this makes a great gift for anyone with an interest in history or philosophy.

In this insightful essay Sigmund Freud delves into the psychological roots of war, the nature of human aggression, and the profound impact of death on society.

Anyone, as Freud tells us in "Reflections on War and Death", forced to react against his own impulses may be described as a hypocrite, whether he is conscious of it or not. One might even venture to assert - it is still Freud's argument - that our contemporary civilization favors this sort of hypocrisy and that there are more civilized hypocrites than truly cultured persons, and it is even a question whether a certain amount of hypocrisy is not indispensable to maintain civilization.

"Totem and Taboo: Resemblances Between the Mental Lives of Savages and Neurotics" is a work by Sigmund Freud, published in German in 1913.

"Psychopathology of Everyday Life" is a book which passed through four editions in Germany and is considered the author's most popular work.

This translation is made of the fourth German edition.

Sigmund Freud’s “The Interpretation of Dreams” has been described as one of the most important books of the 20th century. As a result of the perception, however, that it is a lengthy and complex work, Freud embarked on the task of compiling a more brief and simplified version of his ideas on the interpretation of dreams. The results of this labor are presented in "On Dreams". From the time of its appearance, a large and loyal audience of scholars, experts and curious learners have relied on this work for a trusted and systematic exposition of Freud's theory of dreams.

"Auf den folgenden Blättern werde ich den Nachweis erbringen, dass es eine psychologische Technik gibt, welche gestattet, Träume zu deuten, und dass bei Anwendung dieses Verfahrens jeder Traum sich als ein sinnvolles psychisches Gebilde herausstellt, welches an angebbarer Stelle in das seelische Treiben des Wachens einzureihen ist." Mit dieser provokanten Behauptung beginnt Sigmund Freud seine "Traumdeutung", jenes Buch, das er selbst zu seinen besten zählte und das heute unbestreitbar zu den großen Meilensteinen der Wissenschaft gehört.
