I'll get this rolling with a post.
For anyone who has extra time, I think the two most heavily referenced and most valuable accompanying essays to Civilization and Its Discontents are Beyond the Pleasure Principle and Totem and Taboo. In that order. It's a good amount of more reading, though both are shorter than Civilization.
Also, in the realm of general psycho-analytic offshoots, there was an amazing article on the less highly regarded and less sexually-obsessed Carl Jung in the NY Times Magazine a few weeks back. The book that it's about -- a highly guarded and previously unpublished ongoing diary/chronicle of his innermost thoughts, dreams and obsessions -- is also on display at the Rubin Museum on 17th Street.
