Summary: "Zeitgemäßes über Krieg und Tod" by Sigmund Freud is a psychological essay written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the complexities of human emotions concerning war and death, particularly in the context of the World War I era. Freud explores the disappointments that arise from the grim realities of war and examines society's evolving relationship with death, revealing underlying psychological mechanisms. In this essay, Freud articulates how war disrupts the previously upheld illusions of civilized behavior and the moral code that is essential for individuals and societies. He discusses the deep disillusionment sparked by the brutal nature of modern warfare, which contrasts sharply with prior expectations of conduct among cultured nations. Freud analyzes the ambivalence that individuals feel toward death—acknowledging it as an inevitable outcome of life while simultaneously attempting to distance themselves from its reality. He suggests that war forces a confrontation with death, disrupting the societal tendency to overlook or avoid discussions about mortality, ultimately leading to a more nuanced understanding of life, loss, and the human instinct for survival.
