In "What is Psychoanalytic Criticism?" Freudian theories of repressed and unconscious states are regarded as his important points in his main motivating interpretations. Social stability and civility though have repressed these natural instincits - only able to be revealed through practices such as art, languange, dreams and so on.
An idea i gave produced from Freuds developments is that when one sees another induvidual with a manifestation of themselves- but something they themselves have repressed- displaced emotions of hate or fear result. Moreover this could be the result of a defense mechanism to oneself since the individual was suppressed by other forces such as society, culture, customs and etc. Yet, my question would be although Freud brings these issues to the forefront - whats the solution, and more importantly would he desire to destroy repression and the disguised instincts? ...personally, all i think that would evolve from that would be a travel back to a dog eat dog world in the early centuries of mankind. We evolved this way for a reason. Some things do indeed need to be repressed. Some kind of order needs to remain in such a chaotic world.
