The Walking Unconscious

In the comings and goings, the title The Walking Unconscious alludes to the plurality of the unconscious manifestations that this book attempts to comprise, from the female subjectivity conception to the contributions of contemporary psychoanalysts. The Unconscious needs to walk by the drives and the desire to achieve a joy that is not always sublime, but which alludes to the dosages of childish pleasures never before abandoned. It is this dose of pleasure that this reading aims to provide, through the lapse and associations that psychoanalysis provides to a reader who still, and unfortunately, is focused on the divan. Therefore, The Walking Unconscious is a point of arrival in which the subjectivity gains a new contour based on the Freudian work and his followers reading, such as Piera Aulagnier, Paul Schilder and Karl Abraham. Therefore, through this multi-faceted plurality, this book seeks to break the old dilemma that psychoanalysis is an outdated science. In my understanding, it has never been so present in our context, but the blindness caused by the empirical search for instant results placed it in an area never before assigned, a space in which the anguish needs to be opened and the unconscious put into action: that is why the title of Walking Unconscious. The unconscious needs to walk through the other sciences: it has always been present, in latent state, but its own legs were never given. These symbolic legs are what allow a reflection that will lead the reader to a walking since the female subjectivity constitution to the obsessions clinic, passing by the hysteria, the body image and contemporary reflections. Let us read it!!
