Specters of Freud

Summary:

This essay follows the breaches of deconstructive rereading in some basic psychoanalytic legacies, such as heritage, inheritance, and spectral effect of resubjectivation. It is on specters in psychoanalysis and the specters haunting Freud. The essay demonstrates the importance of deconstruction in psychoanalysis in the era of tele-technological resubjectification. The Freudian theory of prosthesis shows that human beings are always already techno-beings, which is one special case of spectralization and oneirization.
