About the author
Born in Freiberg, Moravia, in 1856, Sigmund Freud grew up mostly in Vienna and trained as a physician and neurologist. Over time he developed psychoanalysis, both a method of talking treatment and a broader theory about unconscious mental life, repression, and the meaning of dreams.
Freud wrote a series of books that shaped modern intellectual life, including The Interpretation of Dreams, The Psychopathology of Everyday Life, and Civilization and Its Discontents. Even readers who disagree with him often find his work compelling for the way it links ordinary slips, childhood experience, and inner conflict to larger questions about personality and culture.
In 1938, after the Nazi annexation of Austria, Freud left Vienna for London, where he died in 1939. His work has been challenged, revised, and reinterpreted many times, but his impact on psychology, literature, and the language people use to describe themselves is still hard to ignore.
