Psychology concerns itself with the state of mind and the structure of the personality of the individual in question, e.g. in literary criticism, the author. There have been 'proto-Freudian' psychological theories such as that of John Keble, who said that the overpowering emotion, ruling taste or feeling, the direct indulgence of the individual, when repressed leads to some sort of 'indirect expression' e.g. poetry (in literature). This repression is due to the overpowering sentiments of "reticence" (meaning unwillingness to do something or talk about something as a part of one being nervous or careful) and "shame" in an individual. The conflict between the need for expression, on one hand, and compulsion to repress such self-revelation, on the other, is resolved in the case where the poet's ability leads to a “healing relief to secret mental emotion, yet without detriment to modest reserve” by a literary “art which under certain veils and disguises ... reveals the fervent emotions of the mind.” For Keble this concealed mode of self-expression serves as “a safety valve, preserving men from madness.”<ref>John Keble, Lectures on Poetry 1832-1841</ref>
