Human Development

• Part of the book series (LDS) Abstract The purpose of this chapter is to give readers not conversant with Freudian theory a brief overview, in outline form and ‘illustrated’ by reference to popular films, of Freud’s concept of drive and the major changes it underwent during the course of his life’s work. As the unconscious is the fundamental concept of Freud’s metapsychology (this is the term he used for his theory of the human psyche, of which psychoanalysis was the material, embodied, knowledge practice), so is the drive the single most important concept in his theory of sexuality. It is elaborated and re-elaborated in Freud’s major works, from the Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality (1905) to the metapsychological papers of 1915 to Beyond the Pleasure Principle (1920) and The Ego and the Id (1923). Each time Freud reformulated the nature and activity of the drive(s) marked a turning point in the development of his theory; conversely, each shift in his thought, brought about by clinical practice as well as historical events, and no doubt by Freud’s own, contingent social location and personal history, was accompanied by a reconfiguration of the conceptual space in which he envisaged the drive to operate. The two terms used by Freud, Trieb and Instinkt, are rendered in the Standard Edition with the single English word instinct, although the editors themselves note that ‘the word “ Trieb” bears much more of a feeling of urgency than the English “instinct”’. See Sigmund Freud, The Standard Edition of the Complete Psychological Works of Sigmund Freud, trans. James Strachey, 24 volumes (London: Hogarth Press, 1953–74); hereafter abbreviated SE.
