Человек социален, сексуален и знает о том, что смертен (это три кита психоанализа). Основатель теории психоанализа Зигмунд Фрейд разработал трехкомпонентную структурную модель человеческой психики и исследовал механизмы ее защиты, сформулировал метод свободных ассоциаций и обосновал пользу толкования сновидений, ввел понятия «психоанализ», «эдипов комплекс», «бессознательное».
