Spurred on by the death of his father, he began analyzing his own dreams, in the process recreating lost childhood memories and uncovering the roots of his own neuroses. He concluded that dreams were filled with latent meaning, their bizarre imagery and peculiar narratives concealing deepseated, instinctual motives and desires. For example, his own problems stemmed from a repressed desire for his mother and hostility towards his fatherthe nowfamous Oedipal complex. By revealing how the seemingly trivial nonsense of dreams reflect important personal issues in the dreamers present and past life, Freud created a key that unlocked the vital secrets of the unconscious mind.&&L/P&&R&&LP style='MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt'&&R &&L/P&&R&&LP style='MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt'&&RA fascinating and beautifully written book, &&LI&&RThe Interpretation of Dreams&&L/I&&R is an indefinable masterpiece that helped shape the mind of the twentieth century.&&L/P&&R&&LP style='MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt'&&R &&L/P&&R&&LDIV&&R&&LSTRONG&&RDaniel T.
