A General Introduction to Psychoanalysis

In this series of 28 lectures, Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis, presents a comprehensive introduction to his revolutionary ideas during the First World War, originally published in English in 1920. Divided into three parts—'The Psychology of Errors,' 'The Dream,' and 'General Theory of Neuroses'—Freud explores key concepts such as Freudian slips, the Oedipus complex, and the unconscious. He aims to clarify how psychoanalysis can help uncover the roots of neuroses, challenging traditional psychiatric methods, with clear narration by Nigel Carrington and translation by G. Stanley Hall.
