Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality

Viac o knihe

Freud's exploration of sexuality delves into three key areas: sexual perversions, childhood sexuality, and puberty. He distinguishes between the sexual object and aim, noting that deviations can occur in both, including disturbing topics like pedophilia and bestiality. His analysis of neurotics reveals that perverse tendencies often exist as unconscious forces. In discussing infantile sexuality, Freud asserts that children's sexual urges evolve into adult sexuality through psychosexual development. Lastly, he highlights how puberty solidifies sexual identity, marking a transition from childhood to adulthood.
