5. FREUDIANISM
- is mainly based on the Psychoanalytic
Theory developed by Sigmund Feud.
His work concerning the structure and
the functioning of the human mind
had far reaching significance, both
practically and scientifically, and it
continues to influence contemporary
thought.

6. DEVELOPMENT OF
PSYCHOANALYTIC THEORY
 Freud greatly admired his philosophy tutor
Theodor Lipps, who was one of the main
contemporary theorists of the concepts of the
unconscious and empathy.
 He adopted the approach of his friend and
collaborator, Josef Breuer, in a use of hypnosis.
 By 1896 Freud had abandoned hypnosis and
was using the term "psychoanalysis" to refer to
his new clinical method and the theories on
which it was based.

7.  He formulated the “Freud’s Seduction
Theory” which soon was developed to
“Oedipus Complex Theory”.
 This theory was initiated after his father’s
death when he faced medical problems and
realized the hostility towards his father and
his sexual feelings towards his mother
through his dreams. (Oedipal or Castration
complex)

8. PSYCHOSEXUAL DEVELOPMENT
 He argued that humans are born
"polymorphously perverse".
 He further argued that, as humans
develop, they become fixated on
different and specific objects through
their stages of development.

9.  Freud stated explicitly that the concept of
the unconscious was based on the theory
of repression. He postulated a cycle in
which ideas are repressed, but remain in
the mind, removed from consciousness yet
operative, then reappear in consciousness
under certain circumstances.

14. ID, EGO, and SUPER EGO
 The id is the completely
unconscious, impulsive, child-like portion of
the psyche that operates on the "pleasure
principle" and is the source of basic impulses
and drives; it seeks immediate pleasure and
gratification.
 The super-ego is the moral component of the
psyche, which takes into account no special
circumstances in which the morally right
thing may not be right for a given situation.

15.  The rational ego attempts to exact a balance
between the impractical hedonism of the id
and the equally impractical morality of the
super-ego.

17. FREUDIANISM IN MYTHOLOGY
(Oedipus Rex by Sophocles)
Oedipus, in Greek mythology, king of Thebes, is the son of
Laius and Jocasta King and Queen of Thebes. Laius was
warned by the oracle of Apollo at Dephi that he would be
killed by his own son. Determined to avert his fate, Laius
pierced and bound together the feet of his newborn child and
left him to die on a lonely mountain. The infant was rescued by
a shepherd, however, and given to Polybus, king of
Corinth, who named the child Oedipus (swollen foot) and
raised him as his own son. The boy did not know that he was
adopted, and when an oracle proclaimed that he would kill his
father, he left Corinth. In the course of his wanderings he met
and killed Laius, believing that the king and his followers were
a band of robbers, and thus unwittingly fulfilled the prophecy.

18. Lonely and homeless, Oedipus arrived at Thebes, which
was beset by a dreadful monster called the Sphinx. The
frightful creature frequented the roads to the city, killing
and devouring all travelers who could not answer the
riddle that she put to them: What walks on four legs in the
morning, on two legs at noon, and on three legs in the
evening? The answer was a human being, who in infancy
crawls on all fours, in adulthood walks upright on two legs
and in old age uses a cane. When Oedipus solved her
riddle, the Sphinx killed herself. Believing that King Laius
had been slain by unknown robbers, and grateful to
Oedipus for ridding them of the Spinx, the Thebans
rewarded Oedipus by making him their king and giving
him Queen Jocasta as his wife. For many years the couple
lived in happiness, not knowing that they were really
mother and son.

19. Then a terrible plague descended on the land, and the
oracle proclaimed that Laius’ murderer must be
punished. Oedipus soon discovered that he had
unknowingly killed his father. In grief and despair at her
incestuous life, Jocasta killed herself, and when Oedipus
realized that she was dead and that their children were
accursed, he put out his eyes and relinquished the throne.
He live in Thebes for several years but was finally
banished. Accompanied by his daughter Antigone, he
wandered for many years. He finally arrived at Colonus, a
shrine near Athens sacred to the powerful goddesses
called the Eumenides. Oedipus died at this shrine, after
the god Apollo had promised him that the place of his
death would remain sacred and would bring great benefit
to the city of Athens, which had given shelter to the
wanderer.
