Overview
A Politics of the id offers a glimpse into the landscapes of the human search for social transformation, while establishing a context in which it may occur as a moment defined by historical development through philosophy and psychoanalysis.Looking through the lenses of Fichte and Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche and Freud: a contemporary to the aesthetics of Edmund Husserl-and assembling Marx within something quite reminiscent of Adorno and Marcuse's elegies-Jeffrey B. Holl touches upon varied insights as to the power of the will and the substance of conceptual content and its formalization through a context where we might construct our Being through the verifications offered this which transcends the boundaries of the culture in which we are only accommodated by our own wishes and desires, and never the reality that is projected from the core of our existential experience-where it may be total and complete to the natures which are determined through the components that compose the human psyche as proposed by Freud-ego, super-ego and id.Jeffrey posits the idea of a Freudian consciousness that is determinate of the not-self, prone toward locutions of the intellect that confine subjectivity to a symbolic space where the imagination is mistaken for reality, and reality is nothing purely empirical but part of a transformation that may be realized through the process of self-identification with the Other as a division from the objective resources of existence responsible for the symbolization of what composes subjectivity as concrete to a position that is total to the horizon and singular to the subject's own self-apprehensibility. Being as such becomes within the modality of a transformation of the id-establishing a context wherein the foundations of subjectivity become representable to the world.
