Beschreibung

2016 Reprint of the American Edition of 1930. In this seminal book, Sigmund Freud enumerates the fundamental tensions between civilization and the individual. The primary friction stems from the individual's quest for instinctual freedom and civilization's contrary demand for conformity and instinctual repression. Many of humankind's primitive instincts (for example, the desire to kill and the insatiable craving for sexual gratification) are clearly harmful to the well-being of a human community. As a result, civilization creates laws that prohibit killing, rape, and adultery, and it implements severe punishments if such commandments are broken. This process, argues Freud, is an inherent quality of civilization that instills perpetual feelings of discontent in its citizens.

Über den Autor

Sigmund Freud was an Austrian neurologist born on May 6, 1856, in Pr bor, Czechia, and is widely recognized as the founder of psychoanalysis. This clinical method focuses on treating psychological issues by analyzing the unconscious mind through dialogue between patient and psychoanalyst. Freud developed a distinctive theory of mind and human behavior that emphasized the importance of internal conflicts, often stemming from unconscious desires, in shaping mental health. His work influenced a vast array of figures in psychology and beyond, including Carl Jung, Erik Erikson, Alfred Adler, and his own daughter, Anna Freud. Freud s ideas were also shaped by thinkers like Carl Jung, Charles Darwin, and Immanuel Kant. Freud was married to Martha Bernays in 1886, and they had several children, including Anna Freud, a prominent psychoanalyst in her own right. Freud passed away on September 23, 1939, in Hampstead, London, at the age of 83, leaving a lasting legacy on the fields of psychology and psychiatry.
