Abstract

During his self-analysis period, usually located by the researchers of his work between the years 1897 and 1900, Freud discovered through the research of his own dreams and his childhood memories the fundamental features of our unconscious. In this article, we propose to investigate, through the texts of this period, the process and the context of discovery that led Freud to propose forgetting, fantasies and child sexuality as structural elements for the functioning of the psychic apparatus.
