special role of psychoanalysis in the development of phenomenology
The confrontation between philosophy and
psychoanalysis has had its heyday. After the major debates between Paul
Ricoeur, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze, and Michel
Henry, this dialogue now seems to have broken down. It has therefore proven necessary
and gainful to revisit these debates to explore their re-usability and the
degree to which they can provide new insights from a contemporary point of
view. It can be said that contemporary philosophy suffers from an ‘excess of meaning’,
and this is exactly where psychoanalysis comes in and may raise key questions.
This is precisely what a philosophical reading of Freud demonstrates. To say
‘Nothing to It’ indicates that the ‘It’—or Freudian Id—is not visible as it
never shows itself as a ‘phenomenon’. Such a reading of Freud exemplifies how
psychoanalysis has a special role to play in phenomenology's development.
