Lisa Diviney's List: Jekyll and Hyde

• ACCORDING   TO FREUD, the very act of entering into   civilized society entails the repression of various archaic, primitive   desires.
• • Freud believes that repression can be seen in two forms:
    1. the individual completley accepts and pursues his desires and follows his instincts
    2. these desires are accomplished in round about and passive-aggressive paths
• ven well-adjusted   individuals still betray the insistent force of those earlier desires   through dreams, literature, or "Freudian slips";
• In other words, for Freud repression is   a normal part of human development; indeed, the analysis of dreams,   literature, jokes, and "Freudian slips" illustrates the   ways that our secret desires continue to find outlet in perfectly   well-adjusted individuals.
