PSYCHOANALYSIS AND PHILOSOPHY
some considerations from the relation between Freud and Fechner
Keywords:
Psychoanalysis. Philosophy. Freud. Fechner.Abstract
The article presents a reflection about the relationship between psychoanalysis and philosophy, parting from the theoretical encounter between Freud and Fechner. The author of a considerable philosophical and scientific work, Fechner is cited by Freud, among other places, in Beyond the pleasure principle (1920), where his principle of the tendency towards stability is connected to the Freudian theory, which then starts to consider the principle of constancy as a special case of Fechner’s principle. In this connection, the fields of psychoanalysis and philosophy touch each other in the intersectional domain of theoretical hypotheses that have the intent of representing reality, where one can delineate a work that inserts itself in the more general field of the history of ideas. At the end, it is also presented the sketch of a general panorama of the possible types of work that involve the relationship between psychoanalysis and philosophy.
