In 1520‚ he completely contradicted this by saying “This pope‚ Leo X‚ is Satan‚ the Antichrist‚” in his writing called “Against the Execrable Bull of the Antichrist.” This complete turnaround proves his change of ideas toward the pope after experiencing Rome (Doc 9).

While writing The Ego and the Id in 1923‚ Sigmund Freud was influenced by the works of Fyodor Dostoevsky‚ which led him to theorize that the human mind is composed of three parts: the id‚ ego‚ and superego. The id is the portion of the unconscious that is the source of impulsive and childlike drives. By seeking immediate gratification and pleasure‚ the id operates on the “pleasure principle” (McLeod). Opposite to the id‚ the superego is the “parent portion of the psyche‚” which operates on what seems

Nietzsche intended to enlighten the world that the truth is intricate‚ as facts are often clouded within different interpretations. Similar to Nietzsche‚ Oscar Wilde‚ a famous satirical play writer in 17th century England postulated that “the pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple”.
