Theory of the Unconscious

José Artur Molina will use Freud's text as his guide for putting together the concept of the unconscious always with reference to language. Dreams failed acts symptoms and chistes will be analysed as manifestations of an unconscious that demands meaning from its own enigmas. The other pillar of psychoanalysis drives will be treated not only as the motor of symbolic constructions but also as the promoter of a plunge into the void of compulsions. Molina's text is profound without leaving the reader less familiarised with solitude.
