Freud’s Other Theory of Psychoanalysis: The Replacement for the Indelible Theory of Catharsis argues that Freud’s familiar theory of psychoanalysis is an elaboration of his catharsis theory. Although it changed from repression of painful memories to the repression sexuality, to repression of infantile sexuality, to repressing of the Id, it still remained structurally a theory of the repression of objectionable urges. Even in Freud’s desperate attempt to replace it with a psychology of the ego, the repression of the objectionable urges, or the Id, remained the source of psychopathology. This theory had an indelible effect on Freud, and remained ‘the prototype’ of almost all theories of contemporary psychoanalysis.
