Biographical Core

Sigmund Freud was the founder of psychoanalysis, a clinical method for treating psychopathology through dialogue between a patient and a psychoanalyst. Born in Moravia, he explored the unconscious mind, developing theories on psychosexual development, the id, ego, and superego, dream interpretation, and the Oedipus complex, profoundly influencing psychology, psychiatry, literature, and culture despite ongoing controversies.
