Jokes and Their Relation to the Unconscious by Sigmund Freud

Jokes and Their Relation to the Unconscious by Sigmund Freud

Freud applies his psychoanalytic framework to humour itself, arguing that jokes function similarly to dreams by providing a socially acceptable outlet for expressing otherwise repressed or forbidden thoughts, particularly around aggression and sexuality.

The book analyses the specific linguistic and structural techniques that make jokes work, treating comedy as a genuinely serious subject worthy of the same rigorous psychoanalytic attention Freud brought to dreams and slips of the tongue.

Freud's foundational psychoanalytic examination of humour and its unconscious functions.
