Philology cross-examines Freud in this sustained critique of
psychoanalysis and its foundational notion of the slip. Challenging
virtually every account of linguistic error in Freud's work as
arbitrary and constrained, Sebastiano Timpanaro advances an
alternative picture keyed to the dynamics of "banalization,"
"disimprovement," and contextual play borrowed from the field of
literary criticism. Underscored with a Marxist defense of science
against the professed materialism of the psychoanalytic "individual
drama," Timpanaro's analysis demands a strong reassessment of the
Freudian legacy and a renewed debate over its value for the Left.
