Die Traumdeutung - Sigmund Freud

Schlicht, aber mehr braucht man auch nicht :)

Zusammenfassung:
The Interpretation of Dreams 1st appeared in German in 11/1899 as Die Traumdeutung (publisher postdated 1900). Publication inaugurated the theory of Freudian dream analysis, which he described as "the royal road to the understanding of unconscious mental processes", promising to "demonstrate that there is a psychological technique which makes it possible to interpret dreams, & that on the application of this technique, every dream will reveal itself as a psychological structure, full of significance, & one which may be assigned to a specific place in the psychic activities of the waking state. Further, I shall endeavour to elucidate the processes which underlie the strangeness & obscurity of dreams, & to deduce from these processes the nature of the psychic forces whose conflict or cooperation is responsible for our dreams."
The book introduces the ego & describes a theory of the unconscious as regards dream interpretation. Dreams are forms of wish-fulfillment—attempts by the unconscious to resolve conflicts, whether recent or from the past (Beyond the Pleasure Principle discusses dreams which don't appear to be such). Because the information in the unconscious is in an unruly, often disturbing form, a preconscious censor won't allow it to pass unaltered to consciousness. While still attentive, the censor is more lax in sleep than in waking hours. Thus the unconscious must distort the meaning of its information to make it past the censor. As such, dream images often aren't what they appear to be & need analysis.

Meine Meinung:

Fand ich (wie alle Freud Bücher) wieder mal sehr interessant. Es zieht sich an einigen Stellen aber es ist so informativ :)
