How can science arrive at rational, objective and grounded knowledge? How is it possible to tap into the truth of the outside world? And, especially in the particular case of psychoanalysis, how to check the validity of theoretical and clinical hypotheses?<\/p>\n

Every science collides with deep epistemological problems and, in the particular case of psychology, the question seems to get complicated because of the particular object of this discipline.<\/p>\n

It is at least starting from Kant that the epistemic problem of the phenomenon was posed. This question appears in all its necessity and relevance also in Freudian writings. To date, there continue to be epistemologists who defend descriptive positions of positivistic ancestry, however such conceptions may prove poor when they are confronted with the need to understand the nature of the object they wish to know. The transcendental perspective appears to be the best epistemological framework for arriving at scientific knowledge.<\/p>\n

The course aims to provide the basis for orienting oneself in the contemporary epistemological debate and understanding the strength of the Freudian neo-transcendental choice.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Concise program” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23707070″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]\n
