Jones developed this thesis based on Freud's comments on the play, as expressed to Wilhelm Fliess in 1897,[2] before Freud published the ideas in Chapter V of The Interpretation of Dreams (1900). Jones later developed the paper more fully; It was published in book form as Hamlet and Oedipus (1949). Full text of the 1910 paper from Wikisource at this link.
