In 1920, Horace Liveright published the first English-language edition of A General Introduction to Psychoanalysis—the most popular and widely translated of Freud’s works, containing 28 lectures on key psychoanalytic concepts such as the unconscious, dream interpretation, repression, and neuroses. Written in accessible, non-technical language, it became one of Freud’s most popular books, serving as both a summary of his ideas and an entry point for readers new to psychoanalysis.
