Civilization and Its Discontents - Sigmund Freud
£11.95
Civilization and Its Discontents is widely considered Freud’s most important and most brilliant work. In it Freud examines why today’s society causes suffering on such a vast scale and whether the human drives for pleasure and aggression can ever be reconciled. This lively new translation with helpful explanatory notes captures Freud’s engaging tone for a twenty-first century audience and includes essays by two of Freud’s most insightful and renowned interpreters, historian Carl E. Schorske and philosopher Richard Rorty.
Ulrich Baer is University Professor at New York University and has translated works by Friedrich Nietzsche, Rainer Maria Rilke, and other authors.
