Beskrivning

This is Volume XII of nineteen in a collection of Abnormal and Clinical Psychology. Originally published in 1925, this research stemmed from many discussions about the applicability of psychoanalytic principles to manic-depressive insanity, whether the symptoms could be traced to unconscious mental processes in the same way as Jung had demonstrated it to be possible in dementia praecox and ended up with the general objective moving from that of psychopathological to one of psychological conclusions .

As “The Metamorphosis of Dreams” it was published in Problems of Personality. Essays in honour of Morton Prince. (Kegan Paul & Co.).The present chapter is largely a transcript of this paper; Chapter 49 1A considerable part of the argument in this chapter is reproduced—sometimes in actual transcription—from my book Problems in Dynamic Psychology. When writing this I assumed that some of my views were unique. But, when the book was in press, I was delighted to find an article, just published, that echoed many of my claims. This was a paper by Kiewiet de Jonge on “Dreams as a Manifestation of Lowered Consciousness” (Der Traum als Erscheinung erniedrigten Bewusstseins, Juans. f. Psychologie u. Neurologie, Bd. XXVII, Heft 3.) It gives me pleasure to record my tardy appreciation of this work. With nearly everything that he says I agree. He is, however, an avowed opponent of psycho-analysis. Consequently he has failed—so it seems to me—to grasp the significance of dream thoughts although recognizing their mechanism. For instance, he claims that the train of thought in a dream is without a goal, so that actual events cannot he retold logically. This is, in general, true, but he goes on to say that it is like manic flight without conclusion nor sense. Throughout he fails to grasp the fundamental significance of unconscious thinking; Part 11 Psychological Conclusions; Chapter 50 The Psychology of Emotions; Chapter 51 Future Problems;
