La Con's Theory of the Drive and What Psychoanalysis Is From Freud
In Beyond the Pleasure Principle there is this kind of incestuous intertwining of arrows and nanotopes. And I, one can read exegetically Freud in a different manner. If your agenda is an anti-vitalistic agenda, that is usually problematic. That's something I try to work out with regard to how he then accounts genealogically for the emergence of religion. Is religion actually sort of taming of our too much instinctual vigor? Or is it actually a retrospective attempt at coping with helplessness clearly? Yes.
