Simulacrum and Ideia from Plato to Psychoanalysis

Abstract:

We seek to develop, in this paper, the question of the Platonic alliance of Freudian and Lacanian psychoanalysis. Thus, our first task is to question the image of Plato as a dogmatic philosopher, concerned about the transcendence of the Ideia and ignoring sensitive singularity. On the contrary, we'll look that is through an immanent contradiction in the Platonic philosophy that we can understand how psychoanalysis can be affiliated with the Platonic project, but only if we admit that the truth of Plato's discourse appears in its inherent flaws. We will seek to delineate the space of truth in psychoanalysis as being caused by the encounter with what Lacan called the real, trying to understand the relationship between the concept of real and platonic philosophy.

Keywords:
Plato; psychoanalysis; truth; real
