The book itself is one of the most fascinating and characteristic, and also of the most speculative, in the whole Freudian canon. Nearly all his work was well translated into English, with one glaring exception: - Totem and Taboo. 'Freud had a strong element of the artist in his composition. He was born into a middle-class Jewish family in Freiburg. It is very useful, then, to have this new translation of the pioneer work.' - Nature The Savages Dread Of Incest PRIMITIVE man is known to us by the stages of development through which he has passed: that. Sigmund Freud was the founder of psychoanalysis, simultaneously a theory of personality, a therapy, and an intellectual movement. But in any resolution of them the work of psychoanalysts must be taken very seriously into account. 'Relations between social anthropology and psychology are still ill-defined and unstable. Two topics appear in the letters: 'tragic guilt' and the 'libidinal origin of religion. The foundation of the work's ideas first appears in 1911, in his correspondence with S ndor Ferenczi, through which it is possible to trace the development of Freud's thought. 'Freud has told us that for him all natural science, medicine, and psychotherapy were a lifelong journey round and back to the early passion of his youth for the history of mankind, for the origins of religion and morality - an interest which at the height of his career broke out to such magnificent effect in - Totem and Taboo.' - Thomas Mann Totem and Taboo is Sigmund Freud 's first work on group psychology. 'With - Totem and Tabo Freud invented evolutionary psychology.'
