Bøger af Sigmund Freud

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) havde ikke blot til hensigt at kortlægge det enkelte menneskes sjæleliv ved hjælp af den psykoanalystiske forskning, som han grundlagde ved indgangen til det 20. århundrede.Han mente også, at psykoanalysen måtte kunne sige noget om den måde, vi har indrettet samfundet på.I første omgang så han Ødipus-komplekset som den strukturerende instans i det tidlige forhold mellem forældre og børn. Men hvad der præger socialiseringen i samfundets mindste enhed, familien, måtte i en eller anden forstand også præge de større sociale og religiøse fællesskaber.Bogen er udkommet i "FilosofiBiblioteket".

Part of the bestselling Capstone Classics Series edited by Tom Butler-Bowdon, this collectible, hard-back edition of The Interpretation of Dreams provides an accessible and insightful edition of this important work of psychologySigmund Freud's The Interpretation of Dreams introduced his ground-breaking theory of the unconscious and explored how interpreting dreams can reveal the true nature of humanity. Regarded as Freud's most significant work, this classic text helped establish the discipline of psychology and is the foundational work in the field of psychoanalysis. Highly readable and engaging, the book both provides a semi-autobiographical look into Freud's personal life - his holidays in the Alps, spending time with his children, interacting with friends and colleagues - and delves into descriptions and analyses of the dreams themselves.Freud begins with a review of literature on dreams written by a broad range of ancient and contemporary figures - concluding that science has learned little of the nature of dreams in the past several thousand years. Although the prevailing view was that dreams were merely responses to 'sensory excitation,' Freud felt that the multifaceted dimensions of dreams could not be attributed solely to physical causes. By the time Freud began writing the book he had interpreted over a thousand dreams of people with psychoses and recognised the connection between the content of dreams and a person's mental health. Among his conclusions were that a person's dreams:* Prefer using recent impressions, yet also have access to early childhood memories* Unify different people, places, events and sensations into one story* Usually focus on small or unnoticed things rather than major events* Are almost always 'wish fulfilments' which are about the self* Have many layers of meaning which are often condensed into a single imageThe Interpretation of Dreams: The Psychology Classic is as riveting today as it was over a century ago. Anyone with interest in the workings of the unconscious mind will find this book an invaluable source of original insights and foundational scientific concepts. This edition includes an insightful Introduction by Sarah Tomley, a psychology writer and practicing psychotherapist. Tomley considers paints a picture of Freud's life and times, reveals the place of The Interpretation of Dreams in the context of Freud's other writings, and draws out the key points of the work.

Freuds psykoanalyse har om noget sat det 20. århundredes menneskesyn, psykologiske videnskab og terapeutiske arbejde på nye formler.Vi har lært, at "jeget ikke er herre i eget hus", at drømmetydning er "kongevejen til det ubevidste", og at det sprælske driftsliv ligger bag ødipuskomplekset, narcissisme og meget andet.Den bedste fremstilling af de banebrydende tanker herom er stadig Freuds egne forelæsninger om psykoanalyse fra henholdsvis 1916-17 og 1933. Dengang var forelæsningerne nødvendig formidling og selvkritik, i dag er de en milepæl i det 20. århundredes litteratur og videnskab.De i alt 35 forelæsninger om bl.a. "Drømmecensuren", "Det menneskelige seksualliv" og "Den almindelige nervøsitet" foreligger her samlet i et bind.

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939), østrigsk psykoanalytiker, grundlægger af psykoanalysen.Hvad synes vi er uhyggeligt, i virkeligheden og i fiktionen? Freud har et bud, bl.a. med en eminent analyse af E. T. A. Hoffmanns Sandmanden.“Det uhyggelige er ikke det ukendte ... det uhyggelige er det vi genkender så dybt nede, at det var det sidste, vi ville vedkende os.” - Finn Abrahamowitz i Information.

Sigmund Freud skabte i 1890'erne en helt ny metode til behandling af neurotiske lidelser: psykoanalysen. Ved en daglig - én time lang - samtale søgte Freud at bevidstgøre sine patienter om sygdommens skjulte årsager og bibringe dem en følelsesmæssig accept af de intime og ofte meget pinlige detaljer, der derved kom for dagen. Freud udgave i alt fem store og et antal mindre sygehistorier.Sygehistorien om Ulvemanden, der her foreligger første gang på dansk, er en af de fem store sygehistorier, og vel nok også den mest kendte. Ulvemanden - en russisk godsejersøn - kom som ung mand i analyse hos Freud med en række tvangsneurotiske og hysteriske symptomer. Gennem fire års analyse lykkedes det Freud at finde sygdommens udspring i barndommen. Alle tråde samler sig i en drøm, ulvemanden havde natten før sin fireårs fødselsdag: seks-syv hvide ulve sidder ubevægelige i et træ og stirret ind ad vinduet på drengen, der ligger i sin seng. Bag denne drøm gemmer sig bl.a. en fortrængt erindring om forældrenes samleje.

Sigmund Freud skabte i 1890erne en helt ny metode til behandling af neurotiske lidelser: psykoanalysen. Ved en daglig - én time lang - samtale søgte han at bevidstgøre sine patienter om sygdommens skjulte årsager og bibringe dem en følelsesmæssig accept af de intime og ofte meget pinlige detaljer, der herved kom for dagen.Freud udgav i alt frem store og et antal mindre sygehistorier. Udover at rumme værdifulde oplysninger om hans analytiske og terapeutiske metode tegner de et bredt kulturhistorisk billede af familielivet, omgangsformerne og forholdet mellem kønnene omkring århundredskiftet. Hver sygehistorie er samtidig en livshistorie, der - med Freuds egen formulering - kan læses som en roman eller novelle.Rottemandens sygehistorie drejer sig om en yngre tvangsneurotisk mand, der kom til Freud med sine problemer i efteråret 1907, og som blev behandlet intensivt de følgende måneder. Navnet hentyder til den mest generende af hans tvangstanker, nemlig forestillingen om, at sultne rotter borer sig op i endetarmen på hans længst afdøde fader og den fattige, men stolte kusine, som han har forelsket sig i. Behandlingen var ifølge Freud en ubetinget succes.Som noget helt usædvanligt gemte Freud sine notater fra de første tre måneder af behandlingen, og denne analysejournal, der rummer mange nye og særdeles intime oplysninger om patienten, er her medtaget som appendiks til den officielle sygehistorie fra 1909.

Dette essay blev skrevet i efteråret 1915 i Wien et år efter Den Store Krigs udbrud. Anledningen var et nationalistisk prydbind med korte bidrag fra mere end ethundrede forfattere, kunstnere, videnskabsfolk, politikere og soldater, for at samle penge ind til de tyske biblioteker. Spadsereturen, der udgør essayets ramme, foregik i Dolomitterne, og de to samtalepartnere er formentlig Rainer Maria Rilke og Lou Andreas-Salomé. Freud udgav tre år senere hovedværket Trauer und Melancholie, hvori hans psykoanalytiske teori om sorg udfoldes. Træsnittet på smudsomslaget forestiller en »Melancholicus«, og er et ofte brugt kalendermotiv fra omtrent 1480.

Bogen indeholder Freuds overvejelser over forskellige civilisationers forhold til både tradition, totem og tabu. Dette indebærer blandt andet forholdet til blodskam og forskellige samfunds kulturopbygning. Hertil drager Freud paralleler fra de forskellige samfund og neurotikerens sjæleliv.Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) var en verdensberømt østrigsk nervelæge og forfader til psykoanalysen. Han åbnede i 1886 sin private praksis som nervelæge og giftede sig samme år med Martha Barnays (1861-1951). Han har skrevet adskillige værker om psykologi, og er kendt for sine arbejde inden for dette fag; arbejde, der blandt andet omfatter ødipuskomplekset, den infantiles seksualitet og psykoser og neuroser. I 1938 drog Freud sammen med sin familie til England, hvor han levede sit sidste år.

An extraordinary collection of thematically linked essays, including THE UNCANNY, SCREEN MEMORIES and FAMILY ROMANCES.Leonardo da Vinci fascinated Freud primarily because he was keen to know why his personality was so incomprehensible to his contemporaries. In this probing biographical essay he deconstructs both da Vinci's character and the nature of his genius. As ever, many of his exploratory avenues lead to the subject's sexuality - why did da Vinci depict the naked human body the way hedid? What of his tendency to surround himself with handsome young boys that he took on as his pupils? Intriguing, thought-provoking and often contentious, this volume contains some of Freud's best writing.

One of Freud's central achievements was to demonstrate how unacceptable thoughts and feelings are repressed into the unconscious, from where they continue to exert a decisive influence over our lives.This volume contains a key statement about evidence for the unconscious, and how it works, as well as major essays on all the fundamentals of mental functioning. Freud explores how we are torn between the pleasure principle and the reality principle, how we often find ways both to express and to deny what we most fear, and why certain men need fetishes for their sexual satisfaction. His study of our most basic drives, and how they are transformed, brilliantly illuminates the nature of sadism, masochism, exhibitionism and voyeurism.

Building on the crucial insight that jokes use many of the same mechanisms he had already discovered in dreams, Freud developed one of the richest and most comprehensive theories of humour that has ever been produced.Jokes, he argues, provide immense pleasure by allowing us to express many of our deepest sexual, aggressive and cynical thoughts and feelings which would otherwise remain repressed. In elaborating this central thesis, he brings together a dazzling set of puns, anecdotes, snappyone-liners, spoonerisms and beloved stories of Jewish beggars and marriage-brokers. Many remain highly amusing, while others throw a vivid light on the lost world of early twentieth-century Vienna.

This collection of writings is famous for giving us the phrase 'Freudian slip'. It also builds up a strong social history of Vienna and the middle-class social milieu of Freud and his patients. Through a series of case histories, some no longer than a few lines long, Freud explores how it is that normal people make slips of speech, writing, reading and remembering in their everyday life, and reveals what it is that they betray about the existence of a sub-text or subliminal motive to our conscious actions. As he explains, most of these slips tend of be of a relatively anodyne nature, but some are a little more sinister, particularly those where pride or thwarted love are concerned...

In what remains one of his most seminal papers, Freud considers the incompatibility of civilisation and individual happiness, and the tensions between the claims of society and the individual. We all know that living in civilised groups means sacrificing a degree of personal interest, but couldn't you argue that it in fact creates the conditions for our happiness? Freud explores the arguments and counter-arguments surrounding this proposition, focusing on what he perceives to be one of society's greatest dangers; 'civilised' sexual morality. After all, doesn't repression of sexuality deeply affect people and compromise their chances of happiness?

"Psykoanalyse: samlede forelæsninger" indeholder i alt 35 forelæsninger, der alle sammen beskæftiger sig med Freuds psykoanalyse, og behandler emner såsom drømme, Ødipuskomplekset, det ubevidste og driftslivet.Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) var en verdensberømt østrigsk nervelæge og forfader til psykoanalysen.

The contrast between Individual Psychology and Social or Group Psychology, which at a first glance may seem to be full of significance, loses a great deal of its sharpness when it is examined more closely. It is true that Individual Psychology is concerned with the individual man and explores the paths by which he seeks to find satisfaction for his instincts; but only rarely and under certain exceptional conditions is Individual Psychology in a position to disregard the relations of this individual to others. In the individual's mental life someone else is invariably involved, as a model, as an object, as a helper, as an opponent, and so from the very first Individual Psychology is at the same time Social Psychology as well¿in this extended but entirely justifiable sense of the words. The relations of an individual to his parents and to his brothers and sisters, to the object of his love, and to his physician¿in fact all the relations which have hitherto been the chief subject of psycho-analytic research¿may claim to be considered as social phenomena; and in this respect they may be contrasted with certain other processes, described by us as 'narcissistic', in which the satisfaction of the instincts is partially or totally withdrawn from the influence of other people. The contrast between social and narcissistic¿Bleuler would perhaps call them 'autistic'¿mental acts therefore falls wholly within the domain of Individual Psychology, and is not well calculated to differentiate it from a Social or Group Psychology.

It was while tracing back the abnormal to the normal state that Professor Freud found how faint the line of demarcation was between the normal and neurotic person, and that the psychopathologic mechanisms so glaringly observed in the psychoneuroses and psychoses could usually be demonstrated in a lesser degree in normal persons. This led to a study of the faulty actions of everyday life and later to the publication of the Psychopathology of Everyday Life, a book which passed through four editions in Germany and is considered the author's most popular work. With great ingenuity and penetration the author throws much light on the complex problems of human behaviour, and clearly demonstrates that the hitherto considered impassable gap between normal and abnormal mental states is more apparent than real.This new edition comes with an Easy to Read Layout designed to make reading comfortable.
