The Psycho-Pathology of Everyday Life became one of Freud’s most popular books. It is concerned with the famous ‘Freudian slip’; that is, with slips of the tongue, slips of the pen, faulty recall of names, forgetting of intentions, and other errors. Freud strives to support his belief that all mental events are causally determined by demonstrating that such mistakes or ‘parapraxes’ are the result of interference by repressed, unconscious thoughts. A case reported by Jung will serve as a simple example.

A Herr Y. fell in love with a lady; but he met with no success, and shortly afterwards she married a Herr X. Thereafter, Herr Y., in spite of having known Herr X. for a long time and even having business dealings with him, forgot his name over and over again, so that several times he had to enquire what it was from other people when he wanted to correspond with Herr X.
