Freud is best remembered for two applied works on society, The
Future of an Illusion and Civilization and its Discontents. Yet the
works of the final period are routinely denigrated as merely
supplemental to the earlier, more fundamental 'discoveries' of the
unconscious and dream interpretation. In fact, the 'cultural Freud'
is sometimes considered an embarrassment to psychoanalysis.
Dufresne argues that the late Freud, as brilliant as ever, was
actually revealing the true meaning of his life's work. And so
while The Future of an Illusion, Civilization and its Discontents,
and his final work Moses and Monotheism may be embarrassing to
some, they validate beliefs that Freud always held - including the
psychobiology that provides the missing link between the individual
psychology of the early period and the psychoanalysis of culture of
the final period. The result is a lively, balanced, and scholarly
defense of the late Freud that doubles as a major reassessment of
psychoanalysis of interest to all readers of Freud.
