Dream Interpretation Theories Freud/Jung
2
Freud’s Freud listed certain distorting operations Condensation – one dream object stands for several associations and ideas; – "dreams are brief and mundane in comparison with the range and wealth of the dream-thoughts." Displacement – a dream object's emotional significance is separated from its real object or content and attached to an entirely different one that does not raise the censor's suspicions. Representation – a thought is translated to visual images. Symbolism – a symbol replaces an action, person, or idea.
