[German: _Zurückdrängen_ = to force back. This word is stronger than
_unterdrücken_ = to press under, which we translate by suppress (not a
technical term); _zurückdrängen_ contains already the _drängen_ of
_verdrängen_, the technical word used by Freud to denote the strongest
pressure of all, _repression_. In the examples discussed here, the
agency withholding the intention from expression may be either
conscious or unconscious (groups one, two, and three, according to the
degree of unconsciousness); Freud does not use _verdrängen_ =
“repression,” the technical word for _unconscious_ agency only, here,
but one very near to it in sense.—TR.]

Footnote 26:
[It should be noted that in using the word “unconscious” to translate
the German “_unbewusst_” we are deflecting it from its customary
English sense, which is “absence of unawareness,” such as in the
phrases “he lay unconscious,” “a stone is unconscious,” etc.
_Unbewusst_ is rather “unconscious’d,” i.e. something of which the
subject is not aware. Of it two statements may therefore be
predicated, not only that it is not conscious in itself or of itself,
but also that the subject is not conscious of its existence.—TR.]

confirmation of the above words.
DIVINE RETRIBUTION
A BROKEN ARM FOR A BROKEN MARRIAGE-VOW.
Frau Anna M., the wife of a soldier in the reserve, accused Frau
Clementine K. of unfaithfulness to her husband. In her accusation she
stated that Frau K. had had an illicit relationship with Karl M.
during her husband’s absence at the front, and while he was sending
her as much as 70 crowns a month. Besides this, she had already
received a large sum of money from her (Frau M.’s) husband, while his
wife and children had to live in hunger and misery. Some of her
husband’s comrades had informed her that he and Frau K. had visited
public-houses together and remained there drinking late into the
night. The accused woman had once actually asked the husband of the
accuser, in the presence of several soldiers, whether he would not
soon leave his “old woman” and come to her, and the caretaker of the
house where Frau K. lived had repeatedly seen the plaintiff’s husband
in Frau K.’s room, in a state of complete undress.
Yesterday, before a magistrate in the Leopoldstadt, Frau K. denied
knowing M. at all: any intimate relations between them were out of the
question, she said.
Albertine M., a witness, however, gave evidence of having surprised
Frau K. in the act of kissing the accuser’s husband.
M., who had been called as a witness in some earlier proceedings, had
then denied any intimate relations with the accused. Yesterday, a
letter was handed to the magistrate, in which the witness retracted
his former denial and confessed that up to the previous June he had
carried on illicit relations with Frau K. In the earlier proceedings
he had denied his relations with the accused only because she had come
to him before the action came into court and begged him on her knees
to save her and say nothing. “To-day,” wrote the witness, “I feel
compelled to lay a full confession before the court, for I have broken
my left arm and regard this as God’s punishment for my offence.”
The judge decided that the penal offence had been committed too long
ago for the action to stand, whereupon the accuser withdrew her
accusation and the accused was discharged.
Footnote 40:
[Both senses of cleave are still alive in English: to cleave (=
separate) and to cleave to (= adhere).—TR.]
Footnote 41:
[The principal park of Vienna.—TR.]
Footnote 42:
Another interpretation of the number _three_, occurring in the dream
of this childless woman, lies very close; but I will not mention it
here, because this analysis did not furnish any material illustrating
it.
Footnote 43:

compulsion-neurosis.—TR.]

English ‘anxiety’; the latter however, derived from the same root, has
become established as the technical English term.—TR.]
