- Reading Freud’s Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality: From Pleasure to the Object.Philippe Van Haute &Herman Westerink -2020 - Routledge.Sigmund Freud's 1905 Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality is a founding text of psychoanalysis and yet it remains to a large extent an "unknown" text. In this book Freud's 1905 theory of sexuality is reconstructed in its historical context, its systematic outline, and its actual relevance. This reconstruction reveals a non-oedipal theory of sexuality defined in terms of autoerotic, non-objectal, physical-pleasurable activities originating from the "drive" and the excitability of erogenous zones. This book, consequently, not only calls for (...) a reconsideration of the development of Freudian thinking and of the status of the Oedipus complex in psychoanalysis but also has a strong potential for supporting contemporary non-heteronormative theories of sexuality. It is as such that the 1905 edition of Three Essays becomes a highly relevant document in contemporary philosophical discussions of sexuality. This book also explores the inconsistencies and problems in the original theory of sexuality, notably the unresolved question of the transition from autoerotic infantile sexuality to objectal adult sexuality, as well as the theoretical and methodological shifts present in later editions of Three Essays. It will be of great interest to psychoanalysts and those with an academic interest in the history of psychoanalysis and sexuality. (shrink)
- Why Kant Never Mentioned Paedophilia.Philippe Van Haute -2018 -Philosophy Today 62 (3):889-897.Why does Kant, who extensively wrote on sexual life in all its diversity, never mention paedophilia? I elaborate a hypothesis on the basis of the work of Foucault and Hacking: paedophilia as a “possibility of personhood” only came into being at the end of the nineteenth century. This “possibility” is linked to the introduction of a “deployment of sexuality” over and against a “deployment of alliance.” It is only at the very moment that sexuality starts being conceived in terms of (...) feelings, fantasies, and capacities that can be different in adults and children that propositions on paedophilia become intelligible. This was not yet the case in Kant’s day. I illustrate the distinction between these two “deployments” further through analysis of the approach of the Hungarian psychoanalyst Sándor Ferenczi. Finally, I state that this debate should not be reduced to epistemology and that Foucault’s “deployments” or Hacking’s “possibilities of personhood” are rooted in the material conditions of our existence.

Bookmark - Violence, slavery and freedom between Hegel and Fanon.Ulrike Kistner &Philippe van Haute (eds.) -2020 - Johannesburg, South Africa: Wits University Press.A deep dive into the influences of Hegelian thought on the work of revolutionary and postcolonial theorist Frantz Fanon Hegel is most often mentioned – and not without good reason – as one of the paradigmatic exponents of Eurocentrism and racism in Western philosophy. But his thought also played a crucial and formative role in the work of one of the iconic thinkers of the ‘decolonial turn’, Frantz Fanon. This would be inexplicable if it were not for the much-quoted ‘lord-bondsman’ (...) dialectic – frequently referred to as the ‘master-slave dialectic’ – described in Hegel's The Phenomenology of Spirit. Fanon takes up this dialectic negatively in contexts of violence-riven (post-)slavery and colonialism; yet in works such as Black Skin, White Masks and The Wretched of the Earth he upholds a Hegelian-inspired vision of freedom. The essays in this collection offer close readings of Hegel’s text, and of responses to it in the work of twentieth-century philosophers, that highlight the entangled history of the translations, transpositions and transformations of Hegel in the work of Fanon, and more generally in colonial, postcolonial and decolonial contexts.

- Antígona: Heroína da psicanálise?Phillipe van Haute -2007 -Discurso 36:287-312.Lacan reads Antigone, like Heidegger, in the light of the problematic of the truth (of the desire of) the subject/Dasein. The privilege accorded to the figure of Antigone and the rejection of Creon to which his interpretation bears witness, must also be understood against philosophical background. It also provides an insight into why Lacan gives Antigone – and only Antigone – a paradigmatic significance in the determination of the aim of analysis. we pointed to the analogy made by Lacan between (...) Tiresias and the analyst. the intervention of Tiresias may be understood according to the model of an analytical interpretation. The intervention of Tiresias then also corresponds to what Lacan writes elsewhere about the aim of analysis: The analysis must aim at the passage of true speech, joining the subject to another subject, on the other side of the wall of language.

- Humankind: A Sick Animal? On the Meaning and Importance of the Primacy of Sexuality in Freud, Fonagy, and Laplanche.Philippe Van Haute -2013 -Southern Journal of Philosophy 51 (S1):4-16.In this article, I question the actuality of Freud's ideas on sexuality. First, I investigate why Freud thinks that the main psychopathological syndromes are determined by problems related to sexuality. I then show in what sense Freud's theories on sexuality make it impossible to simply think of psychoanalysis as yet another developmental psychology. Then, I turn to Fonagy's recent claim that sexual emotions cannot be mirrored and that this is the reason why sexuality can only be an imposed burden. Or, (...) rather, this impossibility explains why sexuality belongs to the borderline spectrum. Fonagy further links this idea to Laplanche's theory of a generalized seduction that it is meant to explain. I argue that it is the other way around: the theory of a generalized seduction explains the lack of mirroring in the case of sexuality. In my conclusion, I state that although the metapsychological claims of both Fonagy and Laplanche allow us to reaffirm the special place sexuality has in understanding the human being, their theories fall short when it comes to defending an exclusive primacy of sexuality.

- Lacan en Kojève: het imaginaire en de dialectiek van meester en slaaf.Philippe Van Haute -1986 -Tijdschrift Voor Filosofie 48:391-415.In this article we show how the Lacanian theory of the Imaginary , as elaborated in Lacan's earlier texts, is strongly influenced by the Hegelianism of Alexandre Kojève. In the first part we explain how Lacan is giving a fresh interpretation of Freud's theory of Narcissism by making use of the category of the Imaginary. The second part indicates how the Kojèvian interpretation of the dialectics of Self-consciousness serves as a paradigm for imaginary intersubjectivity. Imaginary intersubjectivity, however, leads to an (...) impasse since authentic recognition requires a symbolic context. That is why Lacan's theory of a fundamental desire for recognition is intrinsically linked up with his theory of the Symbolic. According to Lacan this aspect has been neglected by Hegel . Hegel did not see the importance of the symbolic order. This affirmation, however, implies a severe misinterpretation of Hegel's text. In the last part we elaborate the relation between the Imaginary and the Symbolic as a dialectical one. The Lacanian interpretation of Freud's theory, ' Hegelianizes' Freud. We illustrate this in reference to the Freudian concept of 'libido'. (shrink)
- Lacan leest Hamlet tussen fenomenologie en psychoanalyse?Philippe Van Haute -2007 -Tijdschrift Voor Filosofie 69 (3):535-558.In his seminar on 'Desire and its Interpretation' Lacan gives a detailed interpretation of Shakespeare's Hamlet. We present this interpretation as an alternative to the psychobiographic approach which has been dominant in the psychoanalytic tradition. According to Lacan Hamlet is a poetic creation and nothing else. In order to understand it wedon't have to look at the unconscious motives of the author, but at the composition of the text. The deliberate articulation of the signifier accounts for the effect of the (...) play on its readers. According to Lacan Hamlet is a tragedy of desire that informs us onthe truth of human existence. It also shows how we can get access to this truth. In that sense Shakespeare's text can, according to Lacan, also learn us something about the aim of the psychoanalytic process. The conclusion argues that Lacan's interpretation of the nature of the psychoanalytic process is heavily dependent on the phenomenological tradition and more particularly that it ressembles the problematic of the 'phenomenological reduction'.

- Michel Foucault: de psychoanalyse en de wet.Philippe Van Haute -1993 -Tijdschrift Voor Filosofie 55 (3):449.In this article we discuss Foucault's genealogical critique of psychoanalysis as it was articulated in the first volume of The History of Sexuality. We first show on what grounds Foucault claims that psychoanalytic theory and practice can be considered to be the acme of the 'repressive hypothesis'. Through an analysis of the Freudian and Lacanian theory of the the law we then try to make plausible that Foucaults interpretation of this theory might be nothing but a philosophical translation of the (...) analysant's fantasies regarding the therapy and his/her analyst in the beginning of the cure, rather than an accurate account of it. However, this analysis of Foucault's misreading of psychoanalytic theory allows for a re-evaluation of his relation towards this theory. In our conclusion we suggest that Foucault might be much closer to Lacanian psychoanalysis then he himself realized. (shrink)

- Psychoanalyse en authenticiteit : Lacan en Heidegger over de tijd.Ph Van Haute -1989 -Tijdschrift Voor Filosofie 51 (2):222-244.Nous étudions dans le texte que nous présentons ici, l'importance de l'analyse heideggerienne du temps pour la théorie psychanalytique de Jacques Lacan, telle qu'ill'a élaborée dans quelques textes d'avant 1955. Nous montrons tout d'abord le parallélisme entre le Dasein en tant que souci et la caractérisation lacanienne du sujet psychanalytique. En plus, Lacan — tout comme Heidegger — fonde l'unité structurale du Dasein/sujet dans la temporalité qui est censée expliquer la possibilité d'une existence authentique. Ici, comme ailleurs, Lacan incorpore la (...) philosophie heideggerienne comme source d'inspiration pour sa propre théorie de l'analyse. Lacan échoue, toutefois, à donner une explication psychanalytique cohérente de l'idéal d'authenticité tel qu'il fonctionne dans la pensée heideggerienne. Cet échec pointe vers une déconstruction nécessaire de la distinction hiérarchique entre l'imaginaire et le symbolique qui caractérise de façon décisive la théorie de Lacan. (shrink)

- Sexualidade infantil, objeto-amor primário e a signitic'ncia antropológica do complexo de Édipo: relendo "Sobre a sexualidade feminina" de Freud.Philippe Van Haute -2024 -Natureza Humana 8 (especial1):151-173.Este artigo é uma tentativa de mostrar por que e em que termos o famoso artigo de Freud "Sobre a sexualidade feminina" pode ainda ser uma fonte de inspiração para uma metapsicologia contemporânea. Nesse texto, Freud reconhece, pela primeira vez, a importância da ligação da criança à sua mãe. Tanto Balint como Bowlby consideram esse texto precursor distante de suas próprias teorias sobre, respectivamente, o objeto de amor primário e o vínculo primário. Ao mesmo tempo, o texto de Freud contém (...) alguns elementos de uma "teoria da sedução generalizada" tal como foi desenvolvida nas últimas décadas por Jean Laplanche. Sendo assim, "Sobre a sexualidade feminina" se apresenta como o ponto de partida perfeito para uma discussão da relação entre vínculo e sexualidade. Com base na leitura do texto de Freud, argumenta-se que a subjetividade humana é caracterizada pela falta de sintonia entre o mundo do adulto e o mundo da criança. Esse insight permite uma reformulação da significância antropológica do complexo de Édipo e de castração. Eles não são mais interpretados como problemas universais que toda criança tem de enfrentar, mas como soluções históricas e contingentes para a falta de sintonia entre a criança e o adulto, que é essencial para a subjetividade humana.
