“The logic, science and technology that many thought would bring a better world had gone horribly wrong. Instead of a better world, the advancements of the 19 th century had produced such high tech weapons as machine guns, long- range artillery, tanks, submarines, fighter planes and mustard gas.” (source: Janson)

Sigmund Freud ( ) The father of psychoanalysis In 1900, Freud published The Interpretation of Dreams, and introduced the wider public to the notion of the unconscious mindThe Interpretation of Dreams theorized that forgetfulness or slips of the tongue (now called "Freudian slips") were not accidental at all, but it was the "dynamic unconscious" revealing something meaningful. He said “Dreams are often most profound when they seem the most crazy.”

Andre Breton Poet “Surrealism is based on the belief in the superior reality of the dream”
