Interpretation of Dreams (2nd Edition)
by (o) Freud
About This Novel
"The Interpretation of Dreams" is a book by Sigmund Freud. This book pioneered Freud's "Dream Interpretation" theory and was described by the author himself as "a shortcut to understanding subconscious psychological processes." The book introduced the concept of the id and described Freud's subconscious theory for interpreting dreams. According to Freud, dreams are "wish fulfillments"-attempts to use the subconscious mind to resolve conflicts between parts. However, because subconscious information is unfettered and often embarrassing, the subconscious "censors" do not allow it to enter consciousness unaltered. In dreams, the preconscious is less relaxed than in waking life, but is still paying attention, and the subconscious is distorting its meaning in order to pass censorship. Likewise, images in dreams are often not what they appear to be and, according to Freud, require deeper explanation using the structure of the subconscious mind.
