HMSC 133 SC - Modernity and the Unconscious


Beyond the theme of sexuality, Freud’s discovery of repression and the unconscious has been enormously influential in challenging the foundations of modern experience. This course brings Freud’s central analytic concepts into conversation with those of the twentieth-century philosopher Jacques Derrida in order to explore how the vision of a mind characterized by the unconscious has profoundly shaped aspects of modern experience. Topics to be addressed: scientific thought, love, death, identity. 

Course Credit: 1.0
Offered: Occasionally
