Analyzing Psychoanalysis


Firstly, I would like to say that our TA did a great job teaching the class on psychoanalysis. I really enjoyed how she made it easier to understand and listen to by using real life examples just like our class discussion on Tuesday regarding the Tropicana orange juice. My favourite would probably have to be applying the conscious, preconscious (superego), and unconscious (id) to an iceberg. I found last week's classes less intense because the real life examples used were easier to follow and understand than focusing on a poem.
Aside from our lecture, Klage also gives a great overview of psychoanalysis. Although I have already learned about Freud and psychoanalysis in Intro psychology, Klages chapter was a well needed recap for myself. Overall, last week's classes have made it to my list of top 5 best lectures this year!
