On Dreams (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from On Dreams "The interpretation of dreams," says Professor Freud in one place, "is the royal road to a knowledge of the part the unconscious plays in the mental life." Even standing alone this statement is sufficiently striking; it is at once a theory and a challenge. But it does not stand alone. It comes at the end of many years of research among every class of mental diseases. It comes, therefore, with the authentication of experience. It is not to be lightly set aside; it claims our study; and the study of it will not go unrewarded. The short essay here translated by Dr. Eder is but an introduction to the vast field opened up by Professor Sigm. Freud and his colleagues.
