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. Louis Menand,
author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning The Metaphysical Club,
contributor to The New Yorker, and professor of English at Harvard
University, reflects on the importance of this work in intellectual
thought and why it has become such a landmark book for the history
of ideas. Not available in hardcover for decades, this beautifully
rendered anniversary edition will be a welcome addition to readers'
shelves.
