Résumé
“Man has, as it were, become a kind of prosthetic God.”The definitive edition of Sigmund Freud’s masterpiece on the necessary tragedy of the human condition.ABOUT THIS EDITION This is not a bare-bones reprint. This edition of Civilization and Its Discontents places Freud’s 1929 text in its proper historical and theoretical context. Designed for students, philosophers, and readers of modern classics, this volume curates the essential primary sources needed to understand the darkness of Freud’s late work.This Volume Includes:The Authorized Translation: The classic 1930 English rendering by Joan Riviere, approved by Freud himself.The "Prosthetic God" Interview: George Sylvester Viereck’s rare and intimate 1927 profile, “Sigmund Freud Confronts the Sphinx,” capturing the theorist at his Alpine retreat just prior to writing this book.The Prelude to Pessimism: Freud’s 1918 essay Reflections on War and Death, written in the shadow of the First World War, which establishes the theoretical foundation for the death drive (Thanatos).Historical Criticism: Two full-text reviews from 1930 (The Saturday Review of Literature and The Saturday Review London) that document the initial, shocked reception of the work.New Publisher’s Introduction: A critical framework analyzing the text’s prophecy of our current technological anxiety.ABOUT THE BOOK Written in the summer of 1929, as the global economy teetered on the brink of collapse and fascism gathered strength across Europe, Civilization and Its Discontents remains Sigmund Freud’s most unsettling diagnosis of the modern world.Freud argues that human unhappiness is not a malfunction of life, but a structural necessity of it. Civilization demands a permanent sacrifice: we must renounce our aggressive and sexual instincts in exchange for security and order. The psychological residue of this exchange is a pervasive, unnamable sense of guilt that binds society together even as it torments the individual.Moving beyond the clinical setting,
