Paul Ricoeur's "Freud and Philosophy "was a major reinterpretation
of psychoanalysis and its philosophical significance, but Ricoeur
also wrote many important articles on similar themes. This volume
makes available some of his key writings on Freud and
psychoanalysis: together with "Freud and Philosophy," they form a
major part of his philosophical legacy.
What kind of science is psychoanalysis? What kind of truth does
it offer and what kind of proof does it provide? What does the
concrete practice of psychoanalysis consist of? What can it tell us
about creativity and the work of art? What is its place within our
culture and how can it transform culture? What is the role of
narrative in psychoanalysis?
Ricoeur reading Freud: this could have been the title of this
volume, in which the focus is on the actual work of Freud and not
on subsequent commentaries. An open reading of intellectual
integrity. A critical reading which shuns definitive positions. A
reading to understand Freud.
This book - the first volume of Ricoeur's writings and lectures
- brings together texts which appeared between 1966 and 1988. It is
published under the auspices of Le Fonds Ricoeur.
