KOHUT HEINZ

Ο ΘΑΝΑΤΟΣ ΣΤΗ ΒΕΝΕΤΙΑ
H τέχνη βρέθηκε πάντοτε στο κέντρο του ενδιαφέροντος ενός εφαρμοσμένου ρασιοναλισμού. Είναι μια άποψη της μοίρας της να θεωρείται το προβληματικό παιδί του Διαφωτισμού. Όταν δεν διορθώνεται στα αναμορφωτικά του σχολεία, στήνεται στον τοίχο για παραδειγματισμό των αμφίβολα "φυσιολογικών". Όμως, ο Μπαλζάκ του μαρξισμού κι ο Ντοστογιέφσκι της ψυχανάλυσης δεν έχουν να κάνουν τίποτε με την Ανθρώπινη Κωμωδία ή τους Αδελφούς Καραμάζοφ.

(P/B) THE RESTORATION OF THE SELF
In his foundational work The Restoration of the Self, noted psychoanalyst Heinz Kohut boldly challenges what he called "the limits of classical analytic theory" and the Freudian orthodoxy.
