Aveux et désaveux des voeux inconscients / Confessions and Denials of Unconscious Wishes

Abstract

The reading that we propose of Freud's work here allows to join the issue of subjectivity and telling the truth from the perspective of confession such as can be differentiated and related to the question of Christian confession. Without being confused with a spiritual exercise, psychoanalysis, in reviving the ambition of bringing into being a subject freed from what haunts and persecutes him, the modern name of this being the "unconscious", does not erase its Western origin. Nevertheless, psychoanalysis modifies the ancient way of understanding the link between speech and desire.
