Freud's Standard Edition Gets an Upgrade: An Interview with Dr. Mark Solms, Translator of the <i>Revised Standard Edition (RSE) of the Complete Works of Sigmund Freud</i>

Dr. Mark Solms recently completed a 30-year update of the definitive English-language version of the complete works of Sigmund Freud. This new 24-volume set, referred to as the <i>Revised Standard Edition of the Complete Psychological Works of Sigmund Freud</i> (RSE), was published in the spring of 2024. In this interview, Dr. Solms discusses Freud's scientific works and correspondences that were either newly discovered or newly translated (by him) into English and added to this new edition. Included in this discussion are writings that, Solms believes, have the potential to change the way Freud is viewed within his cultural epoch. Also discussed are the ways that Freud's religious background may have shaped his theories.
