Freud, Sigmund: Civilization and its Discontents v1 3 jun 2009
With TOC, and hyperlinked endnotes.
Be content :-) ______________ From Wikipedia: Civilization and Its Discontents is a book by Sigmund Freud. Written in 1929, and first published in German in 1930 as Das Unbehagen in der Kultur ("The Uneasiness in Culture"), it is one of Freud's most important and widely read works. In this seminal book, Sigmund Freud enumerates the fundamental tensions between civilization and the individual. The primary friction stems from the individual's quest for instinctual freedom and civilization's contrary demand for conformity and instinctual repression. Many of humankind's primitive instincts (for example, the desire to kill and the insatiable craving for sexual gratification) are clearly harmful to the well-being of a human community. As a result, civilization creates laws that prohibit killing, rape, and adultery, and it implements severe punishments if such commandments are broken. This process, argues Freud, is an inherent quality of civilization that instills perpetual feelings of discontent in its citizens. Edit: Here is v1.01, 4th of July, 2009, as .prc file. Very minor conversion clean up, removing the repeated (and a bit messy) TOC at the end. Last edited by Sonist; 07-05-2009 at 06:53 PM. |
