About the divided subject

The subject of phenomenology and neuroscience seem to have many points in common. In fact, they share a partiality and thus an error of perspective: while the former cannot detach itself from the imaginary plane by underestimating the systemic restructuring due to the acquisition of the symbolic language of human societies, the others reduce the dynamics of subjectivity to those of the brain substrate. Through the epistemology of complex systems, we argue that language leads to the emergence of a different systemic level, a new domain, in which each talking cure finds its own relevance. The subject that is born from language is a divided subject- as Freud discovered and as the clinic continually shows us - not between consciousness and the procedural or the implicit, but in itself. Through this perspective it is possible to fully understand him/her, to cure him/her effectively, but above all it is the only ethical perspective, where ethics means the question of the singular desire that inhabits the action of that individual and that involves an unconscious that cannot be reduced to the other dimensions mentioned above.
