Description
The Unconscious by Sigmund Freud is a foundational work that explores the role of the unconscious in shaping our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. This book presents a key statement about the evidence for the unconscious and its workings, as well as major essays on the fundamentals of mental functioning.
Freud examines the tension between the pleasure principle and the reality principle, and how we often find ways to express and deny our deepest fears. He also delves into the nature of our most basic drives and how they are transformed, shedding light on complex concepts such as sadism, masochism, exhibitionism, and voyeurism.
