Sigmund Freud
In Civilisation and Its Discontents, Sigmund Freud turns his attention to one of the great paradoxes of human existence: the uneasy relationship between individual desire and the demands of society. Drawing on his pioneering theories of the unconscious, Freud explores the tensions between freedom and conformity, as well as love and aggression.
First published in 1930, this provocative and enduring work offers a searching examination of the psychological foundations of modern life.
Sigmund Freud (1856–1939) was an Austrian neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis. His revolutionary theories of the unconscious mind, dreams, sexuality and human behaviour transformed the study of psychology and profoundly influenced literature, philosophy and culture. Among his most influential works are The Interpretation of Dreams, Beyond the Pleasure Principle and Civilisation and Its Discontents. His ideas continue to provoke debate and shape our understanding of the human condition.
