“The key to Freud's vision and to the place of his thought within Western speculation about man can be stated simply: psychoanalysis realizes the end of metaphysics by elaborating the meaning of Darwinism for human self-understanding.”
Draenos’s illuminating study which demonstrates that Freud rejected the disjunction between mind-as-meaning and mind-as-mechanism and that, in fact, his psychoanalytic theory was a bold attempt to reconcile the two by tracing mental life to a somatic ground.
