Superego

was shot twice, once in the brain and once in an artery near his heart, which gave him severe brain damage and basically erased all of his past memories. Every scene in this movie shows either his Id or Superego showing, but after his injury, he mostly shows his Id, as he had not relearned his superego quite yet. For me, Henry’s natural state is obviously the Id because his super ego seems very much like a learned behavior. Regarding Henry has many Id scenes, for one example, when his daughter Rachel

id, the ego, and the superego. The id is the roots of what a person wants, such as a baby crying for attention. The baby isn’t conscious of the world around it, and just wants their desires to be fulfilled. The superego is the opposite of the id. It is a person’s sense of morality and guilt, and is built up by learning from your mistakes. The ego is a mixture of both the id and the superego. The id decides that it wants something, and that want is run through the superego, and the final decision

can see that it represents Pearl, the superego represents Dimmesdale and Hester represents the ego. This is the aspect of a piece of literature that calls for the immediate gratification and does not always act consciously. Pearl represents the id because naive child inside prevents her to realize right from wrong and acting without thinking. The superego is the character that reflects all the behaviors and fears of society. Dimmesdale represents the superego as he punishes himself beyond what is

becomes this sweet and lovable person saving his relationship with his family. The id represents the reservoir of instinctual and biological urges and the superego represents the source of conscience that inhibits the socially undesirable impulses of the id. Henry portrays a simple contrast between the selfishness of the Id and moralistic of the Superego. In the movie, Henry illustrated both the negative and positive parts of the Id before and after he got shot. For example,

In the movie "Regarding Henry", Henry shows both his superego and id part of his brain. His id part is very defined in the beginning of the movie. First, in the beginning of the movie Henry is very focused on work and when he apologized to his daughter he only talked about how he won the case and how the case is related to something Rachel did. Second, when he got home he ran out of cigarettes so he goes down to the convenient store and demands for some ,but as he says, "I need some cigarettes!"

To become a healthy adult socially, mentally and physically Freud believed that children must develop a reasonable balance between id and superego. Id is the natural, unsocialized, biological portion of self, including hunger and sexual urges. Superego is composed of internalized social ideas about right and wrong. When describing the effects of socialization: the process through which people learn the rules and practices needed to participate successfully in their culture and society, Peter

beast. This is the setting of the allegorical novel, lord of the flies. The Author, Wiliam Golding, as some readers believe he used freud’s theory regarding the id, ego, and superego to develop his characters. It’s my most strongest belief that jack represents the id, ralph represents the ego, and simon represents the superego. The character Jack clearly represents the Id. To clarify, “The id is the impulsive (and unconscious) part of our psyche which responds directly and immediately to the instincts

Although the protagonist’s id and superego do in fact play a role in his actions, it is shown that they only hold little power over his thoughts. From the start it is well-defined that the narrator’s ego is in control. One critic refers the narrator as being “an egocentric who derives pleasure from cruelty” (Pritchard, 144). Perhaps this explains why the he continues to go into such detail about the perfection of his crime. He states in the story, "You should have seen how wisely I proceeded-with

to do with your id, ego, and superego. Your ID is your natural state where he says you operate on “pleasure principle.” The ego is your rational decision maker with a main focus on reality. While the superego inhibits the socially undesirable impulses of the ID and relies on moral principle. Harry Turner was a lawyer who had been shot which caused brain damage. His true character comes forward due to loss of memory his natural state has more traits aligned with superego. However, Henry's impulses demonstrate

reason: it learns to “test” the reality, to distinguish between good and bad, true and false, useful and harmful” (Marcuse). The ego is essentially what has allowed us to stay alive or not burn our hand with the pretty campfire a second time. The superego is our moral compass that has been thought to us since the day we were born; it is simply the rules and ethical norms of the society we live in. Although Marcuse does develop some of his theory on Freud’s theories he rejects Freud’s ahistorical approach
