Synopsis

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) was one of the shapers of modern consciousness through his development of the concept of the unconscious and the therapy that he evolved based on this discovery.

It also features a concise selection of Freud's correspondence, including "Letters to Fleiss," in order to present a rounded view of one of the seminal figures of the 20th century.
