A 1938 view of Freud's writing desk, taken shortly before he fled the Nazi overlords of Vienna for London, was shot as if from the master's own chair-it takes in a row of Egyptian statues lined along the desk edge, ancient gods who watched over the composition of such books as The Interpretation of Dreams. Taking her cue from a 1940s interior-design book that warns "Misused, color will mock all your efforts," Simmons matched the hues of the solidly colored plastic dolls, manufactured in Japan during the early '60s, with accents from the photographs; hence, the dusky-green girl standing in that '7Osish kitchen with the avocado-tinted fixtures.

Two premieres complete the season. The big one, which opened on July 31st, is the Oedipus Complex, created and directed by guest artist Frank Galati. Known for his work with Chicago's Steppenwolf Company, where he put together a theatrical Grapes of Wrath, Galati pits the Greek king Oedipus against the Viennese psychiatrist Sigmund Freud. The result, I'm afraid is Oedipus 1-Freud 0. This play is a contrivance, as Galati looks to Freud--who wrote about Oedipus in his "The Interpretation of Dreams"--as a contemporary counterpart of the tragic king. But Freud can hardly be called modern, so what does having him love his mother and hate his father prove? A more contemporary someone, say George W. Bush, might bring the message home more clearly than Galati's outdated shrink. But then the Oed...

Part of Jamaican folklore, these beliefs and practices form a network of customs which have survived over time through oral retelling. An interesting mixture of logic and blind faith, they are passed on from generation to generation often accepted without question. It is difficult to trace the origins of these beliefs as they, like many other aspects of Jamaican life, were creolised, reflecting an amalgamation of the belief structures of the different groups who have come to call this island home. However, scholars often cite Africa's influence as the strongest, which is understandable given the large percentage of Jamaicans of African descent and the oral nature of African culture. Perhaps the area in which African retention is strongest - and where protection from harm/self-preservati...

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. - A day after placing fourth out of five wrestlers in his 165-pound weight class at the Big 12 Championships, Missouri's Matt Pell holed up in a coffee shop with a little light reading: Sigmund Freud's "The Interpretation of Dreams.
Pell was bummed out that he needed a wild-card bid just to qualify for the NCAA Championships in his senior season. A notorious deep thinker, Pell conducted an impromptu psychoanalysis on himself.

DISCUSSING SIGMUND FREUD'S The Interpretation of Dreams, Shoshana Felman notes that Freud's discourse is "unprecedented" in the "history of culture" in "the validity and scientific recognition that it for the first time gives to unconscious testimony" and in its "status as both a narrative and a theoretical event, as a narrative, in fact, of the advent of theory.

More than 100 years ago, Sigmund Freud published "The Interpretation of Dreams.
He claimed that the surreal imagery of dreams -- nude public strolls, running from piano-playing snakes or cities of chocolate -- were actually shameful desires, couched in metaphor, that we censored from our waking thoughts.

April is International Guitar Month and National Anxiety Month - the perfect time to share a dream I had 35 years ago, when I was 22 and finally closing in on a bachelor of music degree. I don't dream often, quickly forget what dreams I do have, and put little stock in the interpretation of dreams. But this one stuck in minute detail. And it meant something, which I've only lately come to fully understand.
This was no fantastical dream that telegraphed its unreality to the more aware parts of the sleeping brain. The naturalistic look and texture fooled me; I was sure it was real life. It remains as vivid in my mind as such real events as face-planting into the playground of Holy Ghost Parish School, as a second-grader, and breaking my brand-new front teeth into a hundred pieces. Ouch.
