Sigmund Freud's theory of repression suggests that the mind can bury uncomfortable or threatening thoughts, feelings, or memories deep in the unconscious to protect the individual from distress. These repressed thoughts can continue to influence a person's behavior and emotional wellbeing, often surfacing in disguised forms through dreams, slips of the tongue, or psychological symptoms. Freud believed that bringing repressed material into conscious awareness through therapy could lead to lasting psychological healing.

Freud's law refers to the idea that the mind, particularly the unconscious mind, contains conflicting forces (id, ego, superego) that influence behavior. This concept is central to Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory, which posits that unconscious desires and conflicts shape human behavior.
Psychoanalytic criticism in literature, which draws on Freud's theories of the unconscious mind, repression, and symbolism, is most reflective of his influence. This approach analyzes characters and themes in literature through a psychological lens, exploring hidden motivations and desires. Additionally, the concept of the uncanny, as explored by Freud, is often utilized in literary analysis to examine themes of repression and the return of the repressed in storytelling.
