A discussion concerning Freud and James on the innate and autonomous characteristics of the human conscious. "The function of this presence is to take control of our actions in ways which we are not actually cognitive of. To inhibit or repress instinctual actions which would directly conflict with the evolution of man's social nature – that of what we may call civilization, is Freud's interest."
