Description
Edizione: freud?s renowned work, totem and taboo, reflects the concern of his time to study ?civilization? in contrast to more ?primitive? cultures. freud argues that in reflecting upon notions of totemism in early culture and taboo up until the present time, certain patterns will emerge to explain childhood and ultimately, adult behavior. he states that ?in this book the attempt is ventured to find the original meaning of totemism through its infantile traces, that is, through the indications in which it reappears in the development of our own children. the close connection between totem and taboo indicates the further paths to the hypothesis maintained here.? significant not only for understanding the early work of freud and the birth of psychoanalysis but also the post war period in germany and the intellectual concern with the notion of what ?civilization? means.
