Summary
Sigmund Freud: Autobiography
This most personal work of Sigmund Freud is stylistically probably one of his most interesting texts. Written in a sharp, direct and personal style, this autobiography is in fact a concise account of the development of Freud's fundamental psychoanalytic concepts, emphasizing the resistance that Freud's discoveries encountered during his lifetime.
The specificity of this autobiography is that he begins to "write about himself", but soon the biographical accounts are lost, they disappear in the consideration of the author's work. Freud's autobiography is therefore the story of a life completely dedicated to science, a biography that is inseparable from a scientific bibliography. On the pages of this book, Freud - the man did not fully reveal himself only through some sporadic biographical details, but decided to speak in the most personal and direct way only as Freud - the scientist.
