Following four years of analyzing his and others' dreams, Freud published his first major work,[https://archive.org/details/interpretationof1913freu | The Interpretation of Dreams], in 1900. This work gave rise to his idea that children feel sexual attraction toward their opposite-sex parents, and rivalry toward their same-sex parents, a theory now commonly known as the Oedipus Complex. This idea then laid the foundation for two of Freud's best-known claims — that the sex drive is the main catalyst of all human behavior, and that beliefs in paternalistic religious figures are merely projections of human fears and desires.https://archive.org/details/interpretationof1913freu
