Drive, Intellect, HumourAbstract
One of the subjects of Schopenhauer‟s works and that deserve an analysis based on psychoanalysis is your Theory of Ludicrous, that exposes peculiar analysis about the intuitive and abstract intellects and, consequently, about the human language. Within this Schopenhauer's point of view about the humour, as one of its most characteristic expressions, there is the joke, theme that has interested Freud for a brief moment and gave him a beautiful and meaningful text about everyday expressions of the unconscious and that, thus elucidates the psychic expression of affects in terms of displacement and condensation.Downloads
