The Interpretation of Dreams – Sigmund Freud
Published in 1900, *The Interpretation of Dreams* is Sigmund Freud’s seminal work laying out his psychoanalytic theory. It details his method for analyzing dreams as manifestations of unconscious desires and conflicts, arguing that dream content represents a distorted fulfillment of these repressed wishes through symbolic imagery. The book introduced key concepts like the Oedipus complex, condensation, displacement, and manifest vs. latent dream content, fundamentally shaping our understanding of the human psyche.
