Abstract

As a result of Freud's subsequent theories about the operations of the ego, however, a new "hidden reality" became the focus of interest: the world of anxiety and the defense mechanisms. Lewis Feuer notes that ideals, values, social philosophies, even theories of reality often appeared from this standpoint to be "projective distortions," "systems of rationalisation," and "anxiety-induced" symptoms of neurotic traits or conflicts.
