One may psychoanalyze a particular character within a literary work, but it is usually assumed that all such characters are projections of the author's psyche.. Dead Poet’s Society. Step 1: Explore the various "levels of the mind" as they relate to characters or mass psychology in the literature. Freud separated the mind's force into a trinity: id (instinct of character), ego (realistic part of the character) and superego (moralizing part of the character). The way characters use these three mental powers to navigate life's events is central to a Freudian analysis..
