Eteronomia ed elezione. Derrida e l’elogio della psicoanalisi

Inserted in the wider debate around the relationship between Derrida and psychoanalysis, this es- say investigates the different status of ipseity arising from the encounter between deconstruction and psychoanalysis. The aim is to show how Derrida provides us with a “positive” knowledge about the “subject” – a “subject” that is divided, differentiated, irreducible to the conscious intentionality of an egological pole – and its genealogy, via some word-concepts: heteronomy, election, response.
