Abstract
Freud begins his well-known essay on the Uncanny with a disclaimer that raises the question
of why he writes the essay in the first place. This text argues that the explanation is to be
found in the shift his thinking was undergoing at the time, not only in moving "Beyond the
Pleasure Principle" but also in rethinking its relation to Anxiety.
