  1. Evaluating Freud Lesson 05: Tapping into the unconscious…

  2. Starter: How many mistakes can you spot? The preconscious is the large part of the mind that is hidden completely (like the majority of an iceberg is under the water) – some of what is in the preconscious is depressed (pushed back) because it is too traumatic to deal with. The subconscious mind is what we are aware of, can remember, discuss and deal with. Freud said dreams have a manifest (the underlying meaning of the dream) and latent (the story the dreamer tells) content and used the term dreamwork to describe what the mind is doing whilst dreaming to keep unconscious thoughts hidden and repressed. This protects the individual from undesirable thoughts. Dreamwork includes contradiction, disengagement and secondary education.
