| Summary: | <p>Abstract</p> <p>Freud's legacy deriving from his work The project for a scientific psychology (1895) could give a new impetus to the dialogue between psychoanalysis and neurosciences. A rapproachment phase is warrented. Based on the work of psychoanalysts who are themselves neuroscientists (such as Mauro Mancia, Martha Koukkou and Harold Shevrin) or have a long term dialogue with neuroscientists (Arnold Modell), three points of epistemological congruence are described:</p> <p>1. dualism is no longer a satisfactory solution</p> <p>2. cautions for the centrality of interpretation (hermeneutics)</p> <p>3. the self-criticism of neuroscientists</p> |
