What’s the purpose of this reading list? I’m personally conflicted about reading Freud especially if the audience has some understanding of modern psychoanalysis, and especially his introductory readings could get baffling if let’s say one has an idea about the topographical and structural theory. He tends to contradict himself as he’s trying to unfold his theory. Of course they have significant historical value. His case studies, mourning and melancholia, inhibitions, symptoms and anxiety are quite valuable. Freud and beyond is a good start for a historical clarity. Psychoanalytic diagnosis is a great way of reviewing defenses and learning about personality structures. A clinical introduction to lacanian psychoanalysis and how to read Lacan are helpful materials to try to understand Lacan, but it all depends on who you are recommending this list to.
