How does the unconscious determine the rest of the psychic apparatus? This is a fundamental question to which - to answer it - Freud appeals to the study of the structure of the subject. The so-called "First Topography" and "Second Topography" are two models of the structure of the systems of the psyche: FIRST TOPOGRAPHY: UNCONSCIOUS, PRECONSCIOUS AND CONSCIOUSNESS. SECOND TOPOGRAPHY: ID, EGO AND SUPEREGO. REPRESSION is a force that prevents certain contents from entering the consciousness. All the contents of the Freudian unconscious are repressed contents. It thus differs from other concepts of the unconscious, in which the contents are unconscious not because of repression (for example, in Piaget). Some of the axes that cross this text are the following: failed acts, lapses, dreams, neurotic symptoms, repression, primary process, pleasure principle, condensation, displacement, principle of non-contradiction, timelessness, reality principle, secondary principle, formations of the unconscious, among others. To arrive at such a synthesis, we have summarized the essentials of "Mental activity from psychoanalysis", by Lidia Bigio.
