Brain and Affectivity
What is the Reality of the Unconscious?
Abstract
Behind the effort to harmonise the dual registers of Freudian discourse, Ricoeur expresses the desire not to give in to a reductionist and naturalising conception of the subject. Thanks to the coordinated work between phenomenology and hermeneutics, he achieved a radical recasting of the reality of the unconscious. He worked around psychoanalysis to develop his philosophy of the human being, but his anthropological conception of maturity was still open to comparison with the various sciences of the mind and brain.
