1916
Sigmund Freud
1916
A scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the analysis and typology of character traits observed in patients undergoing psychoanalytic treatment, delving into the complexities of human behavior and underlying psychological conflicts. In this work, Freud examines various character types that emerge in the context of psychoanalysis, highlighting how individual histories, particularly experiences from childhood, shape one’s current psychological state and behavior. He discusses specific cases where patients exhibit traits that create resistance to therapy, exploring the notion of being an ''exception'' who claims special rights due to past suffering. Freud also reflects on how certain characters, like Shakespeare's Lady Macbeth and Macbeth himself, illustrate psychological principles, such as the impact of success on emotional stability and the workings of guilt and conscience. Through these explorations, Freud aims to elucidate the nuances of psychological development and the interplay between individual desires and societal expectations.
