The Interpretation of Dreams (German: Die Traumdeutung) is a book by psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud. The book introduces Freud's theory of the unconscious with respect to dream interpretation, and also first discusses what would later become the theory of the Oedipus complex. Freud revised the book at least eight times and, in the third edition, added an extensive section which treated dream symbolism very literally, following the influence of Wilhelm Stekel. Freud said of this work, "Insight such as this falls to one's lot but once in a lifetime." In what we may term "prescientific days" people were in no uncertainty about the interpretation of dreams. When they were recalled after awakening they were regarded as either the friendly or hostile manifestation of some higher powers, demoniacal and Divine. With the rise of scientific thought the whole of this expressive mythology was transferred to psychology; to-day there is but a small minority among educated persons who doubt that the dream is the dreamer's own psychical act. But since the downfall of the mythological hypothesis an interpretation of the dream has been wanting.

Sigmund Freud

Autor

Nació en Freiberg (República Checa) el 6 de mayo de 1856 en una familia judía. En 1860 se trasladan a Viena, donde Freud cursa la carrera de Medicina (1873-1881). En 1885-1886 visita la clínica neurológica de la Salpêtrière de París y asiste al tratamiento de mujeres histéricas mediante hipnosis y sugestión. Profesor de Neuropatología en la Universidad de Viena (1885-1902), publica con Josef Breuer Estudios sobre la histeria (1895), donde establece el método de la libre asociación. En La interpretación de los sueños (1900) formula los conceptos centrales del primer psicoanálisis. A partir de 1902, siendo Freud catedrático de Neuropatología, empiezan a tener lugar en su domicilio las «veladas de los miércoles», en las que se discuten los hallazgos del psicoanálisis. En 1908 se celebra en Salzburgo el Primer Congreso Internacional de Psicoanálisis, y en 1910 se fundan la Zentralblatt für Psychoanalyse y la Asociación Psicoanalítica Internacional, cuyo primer presidente fue C. G. Jung. Entre 1923 y 1930, Freud introducirá importantes modificaciones en la teoría psicoanalítica. En 1938 deb abandonar Viena y exiliarse en Londres, donde muere el año siguiente.
