On Creativity and the Unconscious - The Psychology of Art, Literature, Love, and Religion

Zusatztext “Freud is a deep explorer of the human condition! working in a tradition which goes back to Sophocles and which extends through Plato! Saint Augustine and Shakespeare to Proust and Nietzsche. . . .no thinker has made creativity and imagination more democratically available than Freud. This is one of the truly important consequences of locating the unconscious inside the psyche. Creativity is no longer the exclusive preserve of the divinely inspired! or the few great poets. From a psychoanalytic point of view! everyone is poetic; everyone dreams in metaphor and generates symbolic meaning in the process of living.” Informationen zum Autor The father of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) was born in Austria and studied medicine at the University of Vienna.
