  • Title: Common (under)ground in psychoanalysis: the question of a Weltanschauung revisited.
    Author: Figueira SA.
    Journal: Int J Psychoanal; 1990; 71 ( Pt 1)():65-75. PubMed ID: 2332298.
    Abstract:
    The aim of this paper is to suggest that, beneath the 'common ground' shared by different types of psychoanalyses, there is a common underground that is seldom discussed in psychoanalytic literature: the fact that any psychoanalysis has the potential of becoming a Weltanschauung or world-view. The roots of this fact in Freud's writings are discussed and some of the consequences of this transformation of psychoanalysis into Weltanschauung for psychoanalysis as science and movement are presented.
