The Revised Standard Edition of the Complete Psychological Works of Sigmund Freud

With this landmark 24-volume set, Mark Solms revises and enriches Strachey’s translation of Freud’s works and delivers the new academic and professional standard, and the future of Freud.

The long-awaited Revised Standard Edition of the Complete Psychological Works of Sigmund Freud preserves the original Standard Edition translation from the German by James Strachey, while adding a new layer of revisions and translations with explanatory annotations under the executive editorship of neuroscientist, psychoanalyst, and Freud scholar Mark Solms. The Revised Standard Edition also presents material not previously translated into English, including 56 lectures, drafts, letters, forewords, and other works of interest.

revisions and additions in an easy and accessible way, highlighting where there are differences from the old Standard Edition. Readers can examine what Strachey contributed before the revisions, in tandem with Solms’s updates, retranslations, and notes which bring Freudian material into dialogue with the most recent 21st-century developments in the field.

This groundbreaking update of the Standard Edition which was first published 60 years ago—revises errors and mistranslations while retaining the original translation for comparison. To preserve the historical—and at times controversial—translation and commentaries from James Strachey’s version, a subtle underlining distinguishes Mark Solms’s

Commissioned by the British Psychoanalytical Society and co-published by Rowman & Littlefield, the 24-volume Revised Standard Edition brings together decades of scholarly deliberation concerning the translation of Freudian technical terms while retaining the best of Strachey’s original English translation. This landmark work will captivate a wide audience, from interested lay readers to practicing clinicians to scientists and scholars in fields related to psychoanalysis.

Special features include:

• New Freud material, including 56 notes, essays, and letters, some that were not included in the SE.

• New content underlined to identify changes to the SE, including corrections of mistakes in the original translation as well as new, clearer translations of many passages

• New annotations in the margins providing the original German technical terms

• New and updated editorial material and translation notes

• New glossary concerning the translation of all key terms

• New photographic illustrations

• New and massively expanded Freud bibliography

• Entirely revised 24th volume, a major scholarly work in its own right, including a comprehensive index for the whole set

• Cross-referencing to the earlier SE is facilitated by the addition of page numbers in square brackets in the margins

• High-quality production and printing, including: midnight blue linen cloth cover with gold stamping on the spine, matching midnight blue endpapers, sewn binding, blue-and-white headband and footband, and glossy heavy-weight dustjackets.
