| Sumario: | Philosophical explanation of aggression as an inherent aspect of man. There is something remarkable about the fascinating theme of aggressiveness. Compared to the countless studies on the Eros, relatively little attention is paid in the history of philosophy to the place and role of aggressiveness as an original dimension of our human existence. Except in the moral-philosophical tradition, aggressiveness seldom became the explicit object of philosophical-anthropological research. In view of the social relevance of the theme, this is particularly remarkable. This book aims to fill this gap. It invokes the philosophical potential of the psychoanalytic tradition to contribute to the philosophical elucidation of aggressiveness as an inherent aspect of the human condition. The book presents an original reading of Freud's oeuvre and in doing so traces a Freudian clinical anthropology of aggressiveness. The Shadow of Cain develops a nuanced and differentiated perspective on the problem of human aggressiveness and offers an alternative answer to a classical, DSM-inspired and all-too-reductionist approach to it. |
