Symbolizing

prosthesis of the totalizing act

Jonathan Cooper-Wiele

pp. 47-60

Abstrakt

Up to this point the totalizing psyche is preeminent and apparently omnipotent. Yet a challenge to this preeminence is sounded in BZ itself when Husserl states that all objects agree only in that they are "contents of representations," or are "represented by means of contents of representations in our consciousness." There are entities which are not immediate contents of representing consciousness, which are not "in" it as such.Up to this point the totalizing psyche is preeminent and apparently omnipotent.
