The aesthetic unconscious

This book is not concerned with the use of Freudian concepts for the interpretation of literary and artistic works. Rather, it is concerned with why this interpretation plays such an important role in demonstrating the contemporary relevance of psychoanalytic concepts. In order for Freud to use the Oedipus complex as a means for the interpretation of texts, it was necessary first of all for a particular notion of Oedipus, belonging to the Romantic reinvention of Greek antiquity, to have produced a certain idea of the power of the thought that does not think, and the power of the speech that remains silent. From this it does not follow that the Freudian unconscious was already prefigured by the aesthetic unconscious. Freud's "aesthetic" analyses reveal instead a tension between the two forms of unconscious. --From publisher's description.

  • "Plutôt que de chercher à savoir comment les concepts freudiens s'appliquent à l'analyse des textes littéraires et des oeuvres plastiques, je me demanderai pourquoi l'interprétation de ces textes et de ces oeuvres occupe une place stratégique dans la démonstration de la pertinence des concepts et des formes d'interprétations analytiques. (J. Rancière)."
