This essay analyses the criticism that Wittgenstein aroused to Freud and to the “analytic myth”, as he was used to say. The author snows that the Wittgenstein’s criticism is a general critique to the psycho-analysis’ scientist self-interpretation and to the interpretation of psycho-analysis as a science based on causal arguments. Moreover, correspondences between Wittgenstein and Freud about the notion of image and about the configurative characters of symbolism are investigated. These themes give the author the opportunity of reflecting briefly on the scientific status of psycho-analysis.

Abstract
This essay analyses the criticism that Wittgenstein aroused to Freud and to the “analytic myth”, as he was used to say. The author snows that the Wittgenstein’s criticism is a general critique to the psycho-analysis’ scientist self-interpretation and to the interpretation of psycho-analysis as a science based on causal arguments. Moreover, correspondences between Wittgenstein and Freud about the notion of image and about the configurative characters of symbolism are investigated. These themes give the author the opportunity of reflecting briefly on the scientific status of psycho-analysis.File in questo prodotto:
