Studies on Hysteria: A New Translation

Sigmund Freud

Newcomb Livraria Press

Om den här e-boken

A new illustrated translation from the original German manuscript of Freud's first major publication, his 1895 "Studies on Hysteria" ("Studien über Hysterie") along with his related essay "On the Psychic Mechanism of Hysterical Phenomena" ("über den psychischen Mechanismus hysterischer Phänomene") which summarizes this work. These were originally published separately, and later combined. This work lays the foundation of his life's work in clinical psychotherapy and started his academic career. This work is considered the first treatise on classical psychoanalysis ever published.

This edition includes an Afterword 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. This is Volume I in the 2023 Complete Works of Sigmund Freud by NL Press. This new translation of Freud's collected works contains works which have never been translated into until now.

Om författaren

An Austrian neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis, Freud's theories of the unconscious mind and mechanisms of repression were groundbreaking. His analysis of dreams as wish-fulfillments, and his theory of the Oedipus complex, among others, had a lasting impact on psychology and culture.
