jordan peterson lectures on freud & psychoanalysis

Preface

"Psychoanalysis . . . is a psychology of the unconscious mind. This implies no exclusion or disparagement of consciousness, but is simply a natural consequence of the assumption that much of the most important mental life is unconscious. Of the total mind so conceived, only a thin upper layer, figuratively speaking, rises into the light of consciousness, while the main substance and mass lies quite beyond the reach of self-awareness or ordinary introspection. To understand the human mind by the study of consciousness alone resembles an attempt to learn the structure and content of the ocean depths by examination of the surface waters."

--Martin W. Peck, The Meaning of Psychoanalysis (New York: Sun Dial Press, 1931)

Psychoanalysis and Psychoanalytic Theory
------------------------------------------
A Traditional Perspective

"Every neurosis is due to a conflict between repressed instinctual demands--which always include early infantile sexual demands--and the repressing forces of the ego. The unresolved conflict expresses itself in the neurotic symptom or neurotic character trait. The technical requirement for the solution of the conflict . . . is the 'resolution of the repression,' in other words, the making conscious of the unconscious conflict. Since, however, certain psychic forces act like a rigorous censor with regard to the patient's own thoughts and wishes and thus keep them from becoming conscious, it is necessary to eliminate the selecting of material which is necessary in ordinary thinking and to let the thoughts wander freely, without critical selection. Among the material then coming up, one finds more and more repressed, unconscious and infantile elements which, with the aid of the analyst, have to be translated into the language of the conscious. The so-called 'fundamental rule,' the rule of 'free association' with the elimination of critical selection of material, is the indispensable prerequisite of analytic technique. It is aided by the force of the unconscious drives which urge to consciousness and to action; it is hampered, on the other hand, by an also unconscious force, the defense of the ego, which makes it difficult or impossible for the patient to follow the fundamental rule. This force makes itself felt as a 'resistance' against the dissolution of the repression. This theoretical insight determines another practical rule: the rule that the making conscious of the unconscious has to take place not directly, but by the elimination of the resistances. That is, the patient must first find out that he defends himself, then by what means, and, finally, against what. This work of making things conscious is called 'interpretation.' It consists either in the disclosure of disguised expressions of the unconscious or in the re-establishment of connections which had been lost by repressions. The repressed wishes and fears of the patient seek constantly for discharge, that is, they tend to become attached to real persons and situations. The most important reason for this is the lack of libidinous gratification in the patient; thus, he attaches his unconscious demands and fears also to the analyst and the analytic situation. This results in the 'transference,' that is, the establishment of relationships of love, hatred or anxiety with the analyst. These attitudes toward the analyst are nothing but repetitions of earlier, chiefly infantile attitudes toward people in the early environment which had been of importance and which had become unconscious. These transferences must be treated as such, that is, they must be 'resolved' by discovering their meaning . . . . [S]ince these conflicts become reactivated in the transference, the analysis of the transference, together with the resolution of the resistances, forms the most important aspect of the analytic work."

--Wilhelm Reich, Character-Analysis 3-5 (New York: Farrar, Straus & Giroux/Noonday Press, 3rd ed., 1949) (Theodore P. Wolfe trans.)

[Wilhelm Reich, in his first reference to psychoanalysis in Character-Analysis, refers to psychoanalytic theory as a "theory of the neuroses." Id. at 3. We might note that most contemporary psychoanalysts no longer subscribe to idea that neurosis of the kind treated in psychoanalysis can be defined as a "conflict between repressed instinctual demands--which always include early infantile sexual demands--and the repressing forces of the ego." Id.]
