This book presents a critical and systematic study of the
possibility to consider and practice Freud’s psychoanalysis as a
form of depth hermeneutics. It contributes to a screening of the
possibility of a hermeneutical interpretation of psychoanalysis,
particularly with respect to the therapeutic practice. The book is
an investigation into the philosophical implications of the
hermeneutical re-reading of psychoanalysis and clarifies the real
speculative and theoretical potential behind the dialectic of
hermeneutics and psychoanalysis. It examines two themes which, so
far, have remained unclarified and unexplored in their
potentiality: firstly, at the level of a construction of a
procedural model for the human and social sciences, as well as for
philosophy, and, secondly, at the level of a philosophy of the
human being able to subsume and express the biological and natural
dimension of human identity as well as its historical narrative and
social identity.
