What is Freud about?
Sigmund Freud analyzes the concept of "the uncanny" in his essay. He argues that the mind reacts to unfamiliar things with caution due to repressed fears from childhood. What is unfamiliar causes a sense of uncertainty that the mind interprets as frightening. Freud explores how concepts like doppelgangers arouse feelings of uncanniness by representing something familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time. He concludes that the uncanny stems from things that were once familiar but have become unfamiliar.
