One of the moments that connect S. Freud with W. Benjamin is, apart from the interest in mental and material archeology, the directivity to a volatile moment constituting the 'lyrical' basis of both Freud's scientific rhetoric, and Benjamin's literary fragments and the philosophy of time. An analogy to the temporality in psychoanalysis we can find also in 'The Work of Art in the Age of Technical Reproduction', where, however, elusiveness is connected to another element of psychoanalysis: to the interest in a neglected detail. The apperception of the unperceivable details is, however, better than a theory or techniques of therapy enabled by means of a new kind of art: film, operating on psychotization of consciousness. The archeology of this theme can be realized on the example of Mickey Mouse as a cinematic representative of the modern philosophy of detail; it appears ultimately also in Benjamin's considerations on film, where it is, moreover, caught in a certain historical-utopian perspective. His logic of detail as a logic of the operation of the universe is, at the same time, put into an analogy to Fourier and Blanqui. It can be shown that the phantasmagoric parallel worlds occurring both in the notions of Freud's patients, and in the visions of the utopists in the 19th century, were conceptualized by means of the media by Benjamin.

The authoress reconstructs two grand Freudian metaphors: the magic block and bobbin spool, which enables her to juxtapose the experience of a psychical human from the Freud's time, referred to, for the present purpose, as 'oedipal', with the experience of a modern man, called 'late-modern'. She confronts five tendencies: (1) indestructibility of mark vs. randomness of construction; (2) absence as the condition of symbolisation vs. presence that prevents it; (3) ban (of incest) vs. order of self-fulfilment; unmanageability/non-disposability of what is human vs. creation of prostheses-fetishes; (5) circuitous path of the psyche vs. 'fast track': discharge or instantaneous fulfilment. The authoress shows how comprehensive processes of modernity have contributed to altered methods of shaping subjectivity in the space between the individual's social and biographical situation and his/her internal experience, which space has been opened by psychoanalysis. These reflections are illustrated with clinical cases from her own several years' psychoanalytical practice.

Svůdnost avantgardy, fetišistický jazyk

This article considers the influence that Freud’s psychoanalytical theory has had on both the perception of fetishism and the influence of fetishism on Avant-garde trends, particularly the interpretation of Avant-garde works (mainly Surrealist, but also Poetist and Dadaist) in the language of fetishism.

Arthur Schnitzler, writer and playwright, and Sigmund Freud, famous psychoanalyst - both with medical background - lived and were active in Vienna at the same time, and in the same milieu. This unity of time and place did not bring them close to each other. The author of the paper sketches the history of their superficial acquaintance. She presents Freud's worries about the 'twin' soul of Schnitzler, as well draws the picture of Schnitzler's attitude towards the creator of psychoanalysis. In Schnitzler, Freud saw intuition and ability to self-observe rather than careful analysis appropriate for a scientist, that were of the biggest importance to him. On the other hand, Schnitzler distanced himself from Freud's theory, though he introduced many motives found in Freud into his works - he owned them both to Freud and to his own invention, sensitivity and his own investigative attitude. The deeper analysis of both Freud and Schnitzler, according to the authoress, does not make Freud's claim about the twin-like similarity at all plausible. The claim that there are important differences seems to make more sense. Schnitzler was not only a theoretician and not intended to make more general points based on his observations but also was quite averse to systematic work. By insisting on 'worrying multiplicity of specific cases', he draw different conclusions - unlike Freud - from the same cases.

The conversation dealt with the history of Polish psychoanalysis (or rather, its 'white spots'), being inseparably associated with the political history; it also touched upon European psychoanalysis and the features differentiating it from American psychoanalysis. The authoress of a book on Lacan told a story about her fascination with that particular psychoanalyst and on her dislike toward 'Lacanists' themselves. She also expressed her own position toward our contemporary status of psychoanalysis as a consequence of social disillusionment with this area: people would expect that a promise of rendering them free of a symptom be fulfilled instantaneously, yet tend to forget about their own subject which the analysis is in fact all about. It is true that psychoanalysis has changed over the hundred-or-so years' period, as the world has since the time of Freud. However, as Roudinesco puts it, we do need psychoanalysis all the more.
