Heteronomy and Election. Derrida and the Praise of Psychoanalysis

  • Carmine Di Martino Università degli Studi di Milano

Abstract

Inserted in the wider debate around the relationship between Derrida and psychoanalysis, this essay 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.

Keywords: Derrida, Election, Heteronomy, Psychoanalysis, Response
