Le rêve et son interprétation

Rate this book
Nel 1901, un anno dopo la pubblicazione de L’interpretazione dei sogni, Freud decise di riadattare le sue teorie sui meccanismi della vita onirica per una fruizione più estesa e indifferenziata: Il sogno fu concepito proprio per divulgare anche tra i non specialisti gli esiti dei suoi studi.
Freud rinunciava agli aspetti scientifici più complessi e ai modelli teorici più astratti per adottare un’impostazione semplice e schematica. Grazie a un linguaggio chiaro ed esaustivo riuscì a creare un’opera agile, immediata, adatta a tutti. Completano il volume i saggi L’impiego dell’interpretazione dei sogni in psicoanalisi (1911), Sogno e telepatia (1922), Osservazioni sulla teoria e pratica dell’interpretazione dei sogni (1923).

Dr. Sigismund Freud (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.

je ne peux pas dire que c’était inintéressant et j’ai bien conscience que son travail est à l’origine de la plupart des théories actuelles sur les rêves mais lire cet ouvrage m’a laissée complètement indifférente je n’ai rien appris je n’y ai vu que de la spéculation infondée tirée d’exemples particuliers, même si j’admets qu’il y a des choses qui méritent d’être examinées…+ ça me décourage totalement je me dis que je ne serai jamais capable d’interpréter avec justesse mes rêves tant les « idées latentes » semblent toujours loin du « contenu manifeste » enfin bref un peu déprimant mais bravo il a attendu le dernier chapitre pour parler de s*xe je l’en pensais pas capable

Franchement, c’était trop bien comme lecture. C’était un bon condensé (Über den Traum, 1901) de sa théorie plus large de Die Traumdeutung (1900) (j’imagine, n’ayant pas encore lu ce dernier). Pis il fait un bon effort pour replacer sa théorie de l’interprétation des rêves au milieu de ses autres pensées. Il y a l’ombre de la version de 1905 de Trois essais sur la théorie de la sexualité (non-œdipienne, mais tenant l’inversion sexuelle autoérotique comme phénomène central) qui semblent se faufiler dans certains paragraphes.

Freud ne cherche pas à deviner l’avenir dans les rêves, mais à en analyser les mécanismes. Issus de la vie éveillée, transformés par le refoulement et l’inconscient. Certains concepts sont devenus familiers, d’autres moins. Un ouvrage marquant, à la fois historique et théorique.

Bouquin que j’ai lu en 3 eme. Deja l’idée qu’une gosse lise du Freud aussi jeune est effrayante.
Très intéressant comme introduction à la psychanalyse, mais franchement trop border et vraiment périmé ses idées

Interesting topic. Freud is certainly a good psychologist but he should have left the writing to someone else.

Un livre très intéressant, son titre parle de son contenu, ça parle majoritairement des rêves et leurs relations avec nos désirs et pensées, même les plus confus et obscurs. Je dirai que c'est un must read pour les amateurs de psychologie et les gens intéressés par l'interprétation des rêves, notre inconscience et cerveau sont vraiment incroyables et Freud a bien su les explorer.

Je relirai ce livre à une période ou je serai un peu plus concentré car certains passages me demandaient trop d'attention pour que je comprenne vraiment tout. Cependant je garde un bon souvenir de ce livre qui tire sûrement un de ses avantages du fait qu'il est court et relativement accessible.
