Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -According to Freud, the latent content of a dream is the hidden psychological meaning of the dream. This content appears in disguise symbolically and contains things that are hidden from conscious awareness, often because it may be upsetting or traumatic.

Detailed explanation-2: -Content in Freudian dream analysis refers to two closely connected aspects of the dream: the manifest content (the dream itself as it is remembered), and the latent content (the hidden meaning of the dream).

Detailed explanation-3: -The manifest content of dreams is the literal images and actions that occurred and remembered the following day. The latent content of dreams is the unconscious desires or elements that those images represent.

Detailed explanation-4: -Freud used the analogy of an iceberg to describe the three levels of the mind. On the surface is consciousness, which consists of those thoughts that are the focus of our attention now, and this is seen as the tip of the iceberg. The preconscious consists of all which can be retrieved from memory.
