Freud was wrong about a lot of stuff
Sigmund Freud developed his theory of psychoanalysis in the late 19th century, with his major work "The Interpretation of Dreams" being published in 1899. This marked the beginning of his exploration into the unconscious mind and his development of psychoanalytic principles in the early 20th century.
Sigmund Freud was a prolific letter writer. In a letter he wrote to Eduard Silberstein, his adolescent confidant and periodic correspondent while pursuing their respective University studies, he extolled a composition of Bret Harte which might have been especially salient to the twenty-one-year-old Freud's own contemporaneous 'lot in life.' How it could have served as a palliative for his persistent contemplation of morbid thoughts may be found in Max Schur's analysis of a segment of the aged Freud's correspondence with Marie Bonaparte six decades later.
Freud dies September 23, 1939.
During World War I, Sigmund Freud continued to work as a psychoanalyst and wrote several influential papers on the psychological effects of war. He provided treatment for soldiers suffering from trauma and observed the impact of war on mental health. Freud's experiences during the war era influenced his later theories on aggression and the unconscious mind.
