The Introductory Lectures to Pyschoanalysis were delivered by Freud during the First World War. Never before, in the course of 30 years of lecturing at the University of Vienna, had he deliberately set down the full range of his theories and observations. His conclusions about the unconscious mind, dreams, phantasies, anxiety, symbolism, perversions, infantile sexuality and other aspects of psychoanalysis are elegantly laid out here.

Synopsis:

These lectures were delivered by Freud during World War I. Never before, in the course of 30 years of lecturing at the University of Vienna, had he deliberately set down, with a view to publication, the full range of his theories and observations. This series, therefore, represents a stock-taking of psychoanalysis as it stood after the secession of Adler and Jung.

About the Author:

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) is the founding father of psychoanalysis. His fundamental discovery of the unconscious forces that influence our everyday thoughts and actions revolutionized the way we think about ourselves. His ideas have shaped not only specialist disciplines, but the whole intellectual climate of the last half-century.
