Freud (1916 - 1917) - Obras completas volume 13: Conferências introdutórias à psicanálise (Obras Completas de Freud)
Freud foi um mestre na exposição e divulgação de suas ideias, e entre as várias obras que escreveu para esse fim se destacam as Conferências introdutórias à psicanálise, publicadas em 1916-7. Durante muitos anos deu séries de conferências na Universidade de Viena, onde era "professor extraordinário", e resolveu publicar em livro a última dessas séries. O livro se tornou um best-seller entre suas publicações e logo foi traduzido para muitas línguas. Ele se divide em três partes. Após capturar a atenção do leitor com a explicação psicanalítica para fenômenos insólitos, mas comuns a todas as pessoas, que são os atos falhos (na primeira parte) e os sonhos (na segunda), Freud expõe sua abordagem das neuroses e apresenta a terapia psicanalítica (terceira parte). Apesar do título, esta é mais que uma simples introdução à psicanálise, pois apresenta algumas novidades na teoria, como a discussão das fantasias primárias, na conferência 24, e da angústia, na conferência 25, além de trazer o mais claro resumo do simbolismo (na 10) e da formação dos sonhos (na 14). Podem ser mencionados também os comentários sobre as perversões, nas conferências 20 e 21, e a análise do processo psicanalítico, na última conferência.

About the author
Sigmund Freud
4,711 books8,770 followersDr. Sigismund Freud, M.D. (University of Vienna)—later changed to Sigmund—was a neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis, who created an entirely new approach to the understanding of the human personality. He is regarded as one of the most influential—and controversial—minds of the 20th century.
In 1873, Freud began to study medicine at the University of Vienna. After graduating, he worked at the Vienna General Hospital. He collaborated with Josef Breuer in treating hysteria by the recall of painful experiences under hypnosis. In 1885, Freud went to Paris as a student of the neurologist Jean Charcot. On his return to Vienna the following year, Freud set up in private practice, specialising in nervous and brain disorders. The same year he married Martha Bernays, with whom he had six children.
Freud developed the theory that humans have an unconscious in which sexual and aggressive impulses are in perpetual conflict for supremacy with the defences against them. In 1897, he began an intensive analysis of himself. In 1900, his major work The Interpretation of Dreams was published in which Freud analysed dreams in terms of unconscious desires and experiences.
In 1902, Freud was appointed Professor of Neuropathology at the University of Vienna, a post he held until 1938. Although the medical establishment disagreed with many of his theories, a group of pupils and followers began to gather around Freud. In 1910, the International Psychoanalytic Association was founded with Carl Jung, a close associate of Freud's, as the president. Jung later broke with Freud and developed his own theories.
After World War One, Freud spent less time in clinical observation and concentrated on the application of his theories to history, art, literature and anthropology. In 1923, he published The Ego and the Id, which suggested a new structural model of the mind, divided into the 'id, the 'ego' and the 'superego'.
In 1933, the Nazis publicly burnt a number of Freud's books. In 1938, shortly after the Nazis annexed Austria, Freud left Vienna for London with his wife and daughter Anna.
Freud had been diagnosed with cancer of the jaw in 1923, and underwent more than 30 operations. He died of cancer on 23 September 1939.
