Jordi Mariné Jubany En un ya famoso pasaje de La Interpretación de los sueños Freud afirmó que Hamlet, la obra de Shakespeare, mostraba el avance civilizatorio de la represión: Hamlet tiene, como Edipo, el deseo de asesinar a su padre; pero, a diferencia de Edipo, este deseo no está en el centro de...
It is somewhat counterintuitive that ‘temple medicine’ belongs to Greek and not to Babylonian medicine, considering the relative importance of temples within Babylonian urban life. In fact, the entire process of incubation is only marginal and poorly attested in Babylonia, despite the central positi...

Following a typical psychoanalytical dream interpretation, the possibility has therefore b...
Los que nos dedicamos al estudio del México antiguo solemos quejarnos de la escasez de fuentes para nuestras investigaciones. En el caso del estudio de los sueños, esta queja está plenamente justificada. En primer lugar, sabemos que existían antiguos códices o manuscritos pictográficos relativos a l...
"El acontecimiento freudiano, que se fecha en 1900 con la aparición del texto de La interpretación de los sueños, es la apertura de un nuevo espacio de saber, y el sueño freudiano consiste en que su "joven ciencia" pueda abrirse al por-venir, por-venir que está en manos de quienes han heredado la di...
