Life history Sigmund Freud Sigmund Freud was a renowned Austrian neurologies, know for founding psychoanalysis. He was born Sigismund Schlomo Freud on the 6th of May 1856. Sigmund is the first of eight electric shaverren and highly favoured by his Jewish Galician parents in Moravian town of Pribor (German Freiberg in Mahren), Austrian Empire, share of the Freud, and other psychoanalysts (1922) Czeck Republic. His father, Jacob Freud (1815-189 6, was a wool merchant who had fa on that pointd two children from previous marriages.Although Jacobs family was Hassidic Jews, he did not follow this tradition. Sigmunds begin, Amalia (nee Nathansohn), was 20 years her husbands junior. The young couple were financially un sound at the time their son Sigmund was born but Amalia took solace in the event that her son was born with a caul because she saw it as a positive omen for the boys future. They were living in a rented room in a blacksmiths house at Schlossergasse 117 As a turn up of the Panic of 1857, Jacob lost his business and the Freud family had to move to Leipzig ahead counterbalancetling in capital of Austria in 1865.Despite their financial situation, Sigmunds rearing was priority to his parents resulting in him entering the Leopoldstadter Kommunal-Realgymnasium, a prominent high coach when he was only nine years, where he proved to be an majuscule pupil and graduated from the Matura in 1873 with honors. He loved literature and was se recuperate in German, French, Italian, Spanish, English, Hebrew, Latin and classical. It has been suggested that due to the fact that he read William Shakespeare in English throughout his life, his understanding of gracious psychology was derived from Shakespeares plays.Sigmund Freud entered the University of Vienna at age 17, intended to study law but fall in the medical exam faculty instead, where he studied zoology under Darwinist prof Karl Claus. He spent four weeks at Clauss zoological look for station in Trieste, dissecting hundreds of eels in an inconclusive search for their male reproductive organs. He graduated with an MD in 1881 Career and marriage Freud started his medical career in a psychiatric clinic in Vienna ordinary Hospital, a put owned by Theodor Meynert.He got married to Martha Bernays, the granddaughter of Isaac Bernays, a promontory Rabbi in Hamburg, in 1886. The couple had six children. In 1886 Sigmund Freud resigned his hospita l berth and entered a private practice specializing in nervous disorders. Carl Gustav Jung, a Swiss psychotherapist and psychiatrist who founded analytical psychology Started the rumour that a quixotic relationship may have developed between Freud and his sister-in-law, Minna Bernays, who had moved in to the Freud family household at Berggasse 19 in 1896 subsequently the death of her fiance.Some Freud scholars reckoned that there was factual basis to these rumours after a publication of a Swiss hotel log, dated 13 August 1898, showed Freud had stayed there with a woman not his wife Although this does not prove that Freud stayed at the hotel with Minna Bernays, it does confirm the part close Freud stepping out of his marital vows. Peter Gay, a Sterling professor of tale Emeritus at Yale University and former director of the New York Public program librarys Center for Scholars andWriters (1997-2003), who was previously skeptical of this rumour, revised his view of the result an d concluded that an affair between Freud and Minna was possible. Based on historical investigations and contextual analysis of Freuds writings, Peter J. Swales, a Welsh guerilla historian of psychoanalysis, who had written essays and letters close Sigmund Freud suggested that Minna became pregnant and had an abortion during their affair. Freud who initially smoked cigarette began smoking tobacco at age 24. He believed that smoking enhanced his capacity to educate and that he could exercise possession by smoking in moderation.He neglected to consider the fact that abstemiousness cannot prevent buccal cancer, a disease he eventually suffered from. Wilhelm Fliess, a German Jewish otolaryngologist who practiced in Berlin, became concerned astir(predicate) the effect of smoking on his health and warned him of the same as a friend and colleague, but he remained a smoker. Freud suggested to Fliess in 1897 that addictions, including that to tobacco, were substitutes for masturbation, s tating that it was the one considerable habit. Introduction to Psychoanalysis Freud became greatly influenced by the work up of his friends who ulterior became his colleagues.In October 1885, Sigmund Freud went to Paris on a fellowship to study with Jean-Martin Charcot, a renowned neurologist who was conducting scientific research into hypnosis. Charcot specialized in the study of fad and susceptibility to hypnosis, which he frequently submitd with uncomplainings on stage in front of an audience. Freud began using hypnosis in his clinical work at his naturalized private practice in 1886 Freud was greatly influenced by Josef Breuer, an Austrian mendelevium whose work laid the foundation of psychoanalysis, mentor and collaborator with Freud.Breuer used a different order of hypnosis from the French method to help his patient, a method that does not use suggestion. Freud postulated that psychoneuroses had their origins in deeply traumatic experiences that had occurred in patient s past such as sexual molestation in previous(predicate)ish childhood (hysteria and obsessional neurosis), a formulation now known as Freuds seduction theory. Freud and Breuer published their theories and pay backings in Studies in ferocity (1895). The treatment of Anna O, a patient of Breuer, proved to be transformative.When interviewed Anna mentioned that talking uninhibitedly plot under hypnosis caused a reduction in the severity of her symptoms as she retrieved her memories of early traumatic incidents in her life. A treatment she referred to as talking cure. This led Freud to eventually conclude in the course of his clinical practice that a more consistent and effective pattern of symptom break could be achieved, without recourse to hypnosis, by encouraging patients to talk freely about their experiences. This procedure he called free association.Further more, he found that patients dreams could be fruitfully analyzed to reveal the multiplex structuring of unconscious ma terial and to demonstrate the psychic body process of repression, which underlay symptom formation. By 1896 Freud had done remote with hypnosis all together and was using the term psychoanalysis to refer to his mod clinical method and the theories on which it was based. In 1897, Freud argued that the repressed sexual thoughts and fantasies of early childhood were the key cause factors in neuroses, whether derived from real events in the childs history or not.This led to the emergence of Freuds in the raw theory of infantile sexuality and eventually to the Oedipus tortuous. After practically work together, Breuer ended the relationship because he felt Freud placed too much emphasis on the sexual origins of a patients neuroses and all refused to consider other viewpoints. Freud continued to refine his argument and in 1900, after a serious period of self-analysis, he published The Interpretation of dreams, and then in 1901 he published another book titled The psychiatry of Eve ryday Life. In 1905, he published Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality.The great reverence given to Freuds theories was not in demonstrate for some years as most of his contemporaries felt equivalent Breuer, that his emphasis on sexuality was either scandalous or everyplace played. Oedipus interlocking in psychoanalytic theory term denotes the emotions and ideas that the mind stores in the unconscious through dynamic repression, these concentrate upon a childs desire to sexually possess his/her mother and kill his/her father. It was derived from the 5th-century BC Greek mythologic character Oedipus, who unwittingly kills his father, Laius, and marries his mother, Jocasta.Freud believed that the Oedipus complex is a desire for the mother in both sexes (he felt girls have a homosexual attractive feature towards their mother) a complex he believed is a universal, psychological phenomenon innate (phylogenetic) to human beings and the cause of most unconscious guilt. In the class ical Freudian psychoanalytic theory, childs identification with the same-sex parents is the successful resolution of the Oedipus complex and of the Electra complex key psychological experiences that are necessary for the development of a originate sex role and identity.Sigmund Freud further proposed that boys and girls experience the complexes differently boys in a form of castration anxiety, girls in a form of penis look up to and unsuccessful resolution of the complexes might lead to neurosis, paedophilia and homosexuality. Men and women who are fixated in the Oedipal and Electra stages of their psychosexual development might be considered mother-fixated and father-fixated, which may result in an adult choosing a sexual partner who resembles their parent. Stages of development The six-stage chronology of Sigmund Freuds theoretic evolution of the Oedipus complex is Stage 1. 897 1909. After his fathers death in 1896, and having seen the play Oedipus Rex, by Sophocles, Freud begin s using the term Oedipus. Stage 2. 1909 -1914. Proposes that Oedipal desire is the nuclear complex of all neuroses first usage of Oedipus complex in 1910. Stage 3. 1914 1918. Considers paternal and maternal incest. Stage 4. 1919 1926. Complete Oedipus complex identification and bisexuality are conceptually evident in posterior works. Stage 5. 1926 1931. Applies the Oedipal theory to religion and custom. Stage 6. 1931 1938.Investigates the feminine Oedipus attitude and proscribe Oedipus complex later the Electra complex. Definition of id, ego and superego Id, ego and super-ego are the three parts of the psychic apparatus defined in Freuds structural model of the psyche they are the three theoretical constructs in terms of whose activity and interaction mental life is described. According to this model, the id is the set of uncoordinated instinctual trends. The ego is the organized, realistic part and the super-ego comprises that organized part of the character structure mainly but not entirely unconscious, that includes the individuals ego ideals, piritual goals, and the psychic agency or conscience that criticizes and prohibits his or her drives, fantasy, feeling, and action through guilt. Oedipus and Oedipus complex Otto Rank behind the Sphinx, by Gustave Moreau (1864) Worth mentioning is an hold on Sigmund found on About. com education by Kendra Cherry, She writes Psychologys most famous figure is also one of the most authoritative and controversial thinkers of the twentieth century. Sigmund Freuds work and theories helped shape our views of childhood, personality, memory, sexuality and therapy. His work is relevant in all areas of development. I am thrilled to find that his work is related to childhood development, perhaps not as well rounded and child focused as Maria Montessoris chase which is solely on all aspect of child progressive development.
