Psychopathology of Everyday Life (Annotated)
Enriched Edition. Why We Forget Words and Make ErrorsBy Sigmund Freud
Length9h 34m
About this audiobook
In Psychopathology of Everyday Life, Sigmund Freud turns from the clinic to the ordinary mishaps of daily existence: slips of the tongue, forgotten names, misread words, accidental gestures, and seemingly trivial mistakes. Written with a mixture of case history, anecdote, philological attention, and argumentative precision, the book extends psychoanalytic interpretation into common experience. Its style is lucid yet probing, characteristic of early twentieth-century psychological prose, and it belongs to the foundational moment in which modernism, psychiatry, and theories of the unconscious were reshaping ideas of selfhood. Freud, trained as a neurologist in Vienna, developed psychoanalysis through his work with hysteria, dreams, repression, and neurotic symptoms. This book reflects his conviction that mental life is continuous rather than divided between the normal and the pathological. His medical background, classical education, and fascination with language all inform his claim that everyday errors are meaningful acts, revealing concealed wishes, conflicts, or associations. This volume is recommended for readers interested in psychology, intellectual history, literary theory, and the origins of psychoanalysis. It remains provocative not because every example persuades equally, but because it teaches one to read ordinary life with unsettling attentiveness.
