About this listen

This text presents Sigmund Freud's "The Interpretation of Dreams," translated by A. A. Brill and published in 1913. The excerpts explore Freud's psychoanalytic approach to dream analysis, arguing that dreams are often disguised fulfillments of repressed wishes, particularly infantile and sexual ones. He supports this by analyzing various dreams, including his own, and discusses dream distortions like condensation and displacement, as well as the role of symbolism and external stimuli. Furthermore, the text contrasts his views with other theories of dreams, linking them to mental disturbances and unconscious processes.
