About Item: Civilization and Its Discontents by Sigmund Freud & Peter Gay ISBN-13: 9780393301588 ISBN-10: 0393301583 Publication Date: 7/1989 Publisher: W. W. Norton Company Paperback 5.3 x 7.75 inches, 127 pages Civilization and Its Discontents may be Sigmund Freud's best-known work. Originally published in 1930, it seeks to answer ultimate questions: What influences led to the creation of civilization? How did it come to be? What determines its course? In this seminal volume of twentieth-century thought, Freud elucidates the contest between aggression, indeed the death drive, and its adversary eros. He speaks to issues of human creativity and fulfillment, the place of beauty in culture, and the effects of repression.
