First English edition of the abridged version of Freud's classic work The Interpretation of Dreams. Octavo, original publisher's cloth. Translation by James Strachey. In near fine condition. An exceptional example.
First published in 1899, Sigmund Freud's The Interpretation of Dreams introduced his theory of the unconscious with respect to dream interpretation, and discussed what would later become the theory of the Oedipus complex. Freud revised the book at least eight times and, in the third edition, added an extensive section which treated dream symbolism very literally, following the influence of Wilhelm Stekel. Freud said of this work, "Insight such as this falls to one's lot but once in a lifetime." An abridged version called On Dreams was published in 1901 as part of Lowenfeld and Kurella's Grenzfragen des Nerven und Seelenlebens. It was re-published in 1911 in slightly larger form as a book. The English translation of On Dreams was first published in 1914 and the second English publication in the James Strachey translation from 1952.
