Course/Module description:
We shall compare Freud's Psychoanalysis and Heidegger's Phenomneology as two therapeutic strategies. While Psychoanalysis focusses on the anxieties motivated by the Unconscious and sexuality, Phenomenology focusses on anxieties as bridegs to the being of the self and its freedom. We are especially interested in the connections between the two strategies which were adopted by existential anaysis.
