| Summary: | Sigmund Freud has affected generations not only in the field of psychology but also in social scenarios, home life and popular
culture. His views and theories have shaped our current concepts ranging from development to therapy. His beliefs, in his time,
not only inspired his contemporaries with theirs’ but they also sparked controversies with other intellectuals. Despite being subject

incorporated into the present dictionaries and everyday life. Massively influential, his ideas, theories and his school of thought,
psychoanalysis, continue to have a strong impact on psychology as well as psychotherapy even today. |
