Freud

Hay Festival 2002, 
Sigmund Freud revolutionized the way we see our inner world. His writing inspires not only psychoanalysts but also artists, film-makers, writers and anyone looking for an imaginative way to think about their inner lives. But Freud can also be baffling: Phillips and Keegan introduce the Id, the Ego, The Superego, the Oedipus Complex. He was a daring thinker, and a stylish writer. His ideas are thrilling and his writing is often delightful. It's time to put the pleasure principle back into Freud.
