About the Book

『The Interpretation of Dreams』 by Sigmund Freud is a groundbreaking work in psychoanalysis, revolutionizing the way we understand the human mind. Freud argued that dreams are not mere illusions but reflections of repressed desires and unconscious thoughts. He introduced methods for interpreting dreams, particularly through symbolic representation and free association. By analyzing dream content, he proposed that hidden conflicts and desires could be uncovered. This book profoundly influenced psychology, laying the foundation for modern psychoanalytic theory. Even today, Freud’s insights into dreams remain relevant, shaping discussions on consciousness, memory, and the depths of the human psyche.

About the Author

Sigmund Freud (1856–1939) was an Austrian neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis, a revolutionary field that reshaped psychology and the study of the human mind. He introduced key concepts such as the unconscious, dream interpretation, and the structural model of personality (id, ego, and superego). His major works, including 『The Interpretation of Dreams』, 『Introduction to Psychoanalysis』, and 『Civilization and Its Discontents』, explore how unconscious desires influence human behavior. Freud argued that much of human action stems from repressed instincts and unresolved conflicts. His theories remain influential across psychology, literature, and philosophy, sparking both admiration and controversy.
