Freudian Psychology

For most of us, the major questions of life continue to perplex: Who am I? Why am I here? How should I live?

They understood that human questions demand human answers and that, without understanding what it means to be human, there are no answers. Through the biographies and theories of luminaries ranging from Sigmund Freud to Erich Fromm, Frank Tallis shows us how to think about companionship and parenting, identity and aging, and much more.

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.

Es con Freud —al cabo de dos o tres mil años—cuando se vuelve a justipreciar el sueño como un acto revelador del destino. Una vez más la psicología abisal ha reconocido un orden allí donde las otras sólo veían un caos, un movimiento agitado e incoherente: lo que a sus antecesores parecía un laberinto inextricable, sin principio ni final, para ella es la via regia, el amino real, que enlaza la vida inconsciente con la consciente. El sueño es el intermediario entre el mundo de nuestros sentimientos ocultos y el que está sometido al conocimiento.

Maroda asserts that an enduring blind spot arises from clinicians' ongoing need to deny what they are personally seeking from the analytic process, including the need to rescue and be rescued. She equally seeks to remove the guilt and shame associated with these motivations, encouraging clinicians to embrace both their own humanity and their patients', rather than seeking to transcend them. Maroda confronts the analyst's tendencies to favor harmony over conflict, passivity over active interventions, and viewing the patient as an infant rather than an adult.
