Freud and philosophy : an essay on interpretation
Paul Ricœur (Author), Dennis B. Savage (Translator)
"The first part of Freud and philosophy, "Problematic" presents a profound and clear theory of signification, symbol, and interpretation. The second part, "A reading of Freud," is required reading for anyone seriously interested in psychoanalysis. The third section includes a thoroughly audacious interpretation and criticism of Freud and a presentation of Ricoeur's own theory of symbol--particularly religious symbol--which places the study at the center of the debate over the sense of myth."--Book jacket
