Chung Yan Wun: The Sedimented Unconscious, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

This work addresses the problem of the unconscious from a philosophical-phenomenological perspective. The unconscious is not understood as a domain lying outside consciousness, but rather as a sedimented dimension of consciousness itself, in which past experiences, repressed wishes, and unprocessed events are preserved. On this basis, the study investigates how the unconscious shapes perception, affectivity, and action in both normal and pathological experience. Grounded in Husserlian phenomenology, it engages in dialogue with psychoanalysis, psychopathology, and hermeneutics, thereby opening a new perspective on the dynamic relationship between consciousness and the unconscious.
