Synopsis

This book is the first volume of the international series Psychoanalysis in 20 Sentences, created by Brazilian psychoanalyst and philosopher William Marcos.
In a concise and accessible way, the author presents Sigmund Freud’s essential contributions to the birth of psychoanalysis, organized around twenty key phrases that capture the core of his thought and clinical practice.
In this opening volume, Freud’s fundamental concepts – dreams, repression, and the unconscious – are introduced not as abstract theories, but as living tools for clinical work and human understanding. The result is a clear and practical guide for those who want to approach Freud beyond stereotypes, with sensitivity and intellectual depth.
The series continues with other central figures in the psychoanalytic tradition: Lacan, Klein, Winnicott, Jung and Ferenczi.
Together, these six volumes form a unique compendium of psychoanalytic theory and practice, making the complexity of the field accessible without losing its depth.
