Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the psychological impact of war on the human psyche, focusing specifically on the phenomenon of "war neuroses" that emerged during World War I. The author meticulously analyzes the various theories of the time, contrasting the prevailing mechanistic explanations, which attributed these conditions to physical damage, with the groundbreaking psychoanalytic approach, pioneered by Sigmund Freud. The author examines the debate over the role of unconscious drives and the significance of repressed emotions in the development of these neuroses. This exploration is particularly relevant to the historical context of the book, as it was written in the immediate aftermath of the war, when the devastating psychological toll of the conflict was being widely recognized. The book explores the complex interplay between trauma, repression, and the psychological defenses employed by individuals to cope with extreme stress. The author also delves into the concept of "narcissism" and its role in shaping both the vulnerability to and the expression of war neuroses. Ultimately, the book offers a profound and insightful exploration of the enduring psychological effects of war, highlighting the power of the unconscious mind and the importance of understanding its role in shaping human behavior.
