Beyond the pleasure principle
$6.00$7.00
The book focuses on two main concepts: the pleasure principle, which refers to the innate human drive to achieve pleasure and avoid pain, and the concept of the death instinct (Thanatos), which expresses the unconscious drive towards destruction and a return to a state of stasis and nothingness. Freud discusses how some behaviors and experiences, such as compulsive repetition and psychological trauma, go beyond the simple explanation of the pleasure principle. The book is a cornerstone in understanding the deeper dimensions of the human psyche and its inner conflicts.
In the book, the author “Freud” came to people with a strange solution to the problem that he had thought about for a long time. Does the pleasure principle completely prevail and control the directions of psychological processes? Are most psychological processes necessarily accompanied by pleasure or lead to it? There may be inclinations towards pleasure in the soul, but there are factors and circumstances that oppose that tendency. After this, what is pain? Is it something independent in itself? Or is it a pleasure that cannot be obtained or attained? The translator tried to convey the author’s phrases as accurately as he could, and he sought to convey what was mentioned in the English and French translations faithfully, without resorting to any introduction or digression that might spoil the original.

The lost
$3.00Gibran’s literary style was characterized by smooth words, simplicity of expression, the use of all linguistic formulas and styles, and the frequent use of metaphors and figures of speech. Perhaps the most important feature of Gibran’s literary works is creativity in the art of photography. We find many beautiful, imaginative artistic images full of deep meanings and expressions covering his literary works; because he was an artist and painter who initially depicted the idea and then created it. Gibran relied on two styles in his literary works: the first is characterized by strength and revolution against beliefs and customs and the call for freedom, and the second is characterized by the love of enjoying life and the call to follow inclinations

Repression
$6.00During the therapy session, while the patient was lying on the couch, telling Freud about his psychological problem, a breeze blew in from the window, carrying with it the scent of the city gardens that were dressed in spring. The patient sneezed and scratched his nose. Freud looked at him and said triumphantly: “Do you know that the reason for your sneezing now is a sexual one?” He went on to explain the reasons that go back to childhood. During that, the patient tried to interrupt him more than once, but Freud stopped him and continued his analysis with great enthusiasm… Simply put, all the patient wanted to say was that he was suffering from spring allergies…
