RODRIGUES, Malcom Guimarães. Sartre, Freud and the opposition between bad faith and unconscious. Nat. hum. [online]. 2016, vol.18, n.2, pp. 70-95. ISSN 1517-2430.

We intend to problematize the sartrian reading of Freud and a freudian reading of Sartre, in order to point out their limitations and fundamental questions made from one side to the other. For this, we will analyze an apsect of the the relationship between censorship and consciousness in the dynamics of the unconscious as presented in the Introductory Lectures on Psychoanalysis (Freud, 1916-1917), and one of the relationship between bad faith and consciousness in the phenomenological ontology of Being and Nothingness (Sartre, 1943). We want to conclude that, beyond an irreducible opposition between bad faith and unconscious, there may be a common and fruitful field of issues dear to sartreans and freudians.

Keywords : consciousness; freedom; bad faith; unconscious; determinism; censorship.
