The [[dream work]] is the task of inserting into each dream the [[wish]] which lies at its origin, without offending the [[conscious]] [[mind]]. Representations in dreams are constructed in the two phases of this transformation: the primary-[[process]] [[phase]] ([[condensation]], [[displacement]], considerations of representability) and the phase of the secondary revision which completes the transformation by giving consistency and an acceptable [[meaning]] to the [[manifest]] [[text]] of the dream. The meaning of a given representation can therefore as a general rule be established solely by [[working]] in reverse, by de-condensation, so to [[speak]], by re-placing what has been [[displaced]], and so on, on the basis of the associations of the dreamer and the [[intervention]] of the [[analyst]].
Processes of symbolization organize the [[dream-work]]. Consequently, the [[whole]] of [[The Interpretation of Dreams]], indeed all Freud's writings [[On Dreams|on dreams]], may be considered to have [[them]] as their subject; beyond that, these processes constitute the very core of Freud's [[metapsychology]] (Gibeault, 1989).
Works [[On Dreams|on dreams ]] since Freud have been extremely numerous, dealing notably with the issue of the articulation between "general symbols" and "[[individual]] symbols." Ernest [[Jones]] (1916/1920) was one of the first to take up this [[discussion]].
