HAUTE, Phillipe van. Psychoanalysis and⁄as philosophy?: The anthropological significance of pathology in Freud′s Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality and in the Psychoanalytic Tradition. Nat. hum. [online]. 2005, vol.7, n.2, pp.359-374. ISSN 1517-2430.

This article wants to determine the specificity of psychoanalytic anthropology in general, Freudian anthropology in particular. It shows that this specificity consists in the use of the so-called crystal-principle. human existence has to be understood from the point of view of its psychopathological variations. It is further argued that this approach allows for the articulation of the project of a clinical anthropology that is broader then psychoanalysis as such.

Palavras-chave : Psychoanalysis; Clinical anthropology; Sexuality; Crystal-Principle.
