About this ebook

A new translation from the original German manuscript of Freud's famous 1904 On the psychopathology of everyday life (Zur Psychopathologie des Alltagslebens) followed by the 1905 The Joke and its Relation to the Unconscious (Der Witz und seine Beziehung zum Unbewußten). These are two major works concerning his metapsychological concepts, now printed in one unique edition. This is Volume VI in the Complete Works of Sigmund Freud by NL Press. This new translation of Freud's collected systematic works laid out across 14 volumes contains essays which have never been translated into until now. This volume includes an introduction by the translator on the philosophic differences between Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud, a glossary of Freudian Psychological terminology, a timeline of Freud’s life & works and other supplemental materials and illustrations

About the author

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) was an Austrian neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis, a groundbreaking approach to understanding the human psyche. Freud introduced concepts such as the unconscious mind, repression, and the tripartite structure of the psyche, which includes the id, ego, and superego. His work, including seminal texts like The Interpretation of Dreams and Beyond the Pleasure Principle, emphasized the role of unconscious drives and childhood experiences in shaping behavior and personality. Freud’s theories on sexuality, defense mechanisms, and dream analysis challenged societal norms and profoundly altered the field of psychology, influencing literature, art, and philosophy. Though controversial, his contributions laid the foundation for modern psychotherapy and continue to spark debates and inspire new approaches to understanding human behavior and mental processes.
