Summary "Der Dichter und das Phantasieren" by Sigmund Freud is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The text explores the relationship between the creative process of poets and the concept of daydreaming or fantasizing. Freud delves into the psychological underpinnings of creativity, drawing parallels between the imaginative play of children and the artistic expressions of poets, highlighting the significance of unconscious desires in both. In this essay, Freud argues that the act of fantasizing is a fundamental part of human psychology, serving as both a fulfillment of unmet desires and a remnant of the imaginative play inherent in childhood. He posits that poets create their narratives much like children construct their dreams, with a focus on their own unfulfilled wishes and feelings of nostalgia. The text further examines how societal norms create shame around adult fantasizing, while simultaneously finding a form of expression in artistic creation. Freud concludes by suggesting that the allure of poetry lies in its ability to transform personal fantasies into shared aesthetic experiences, allowing readers to engage with their desires without embarrassment.
