Free Association’s Antecedents: The Precursor Experiments in 1890’s Decade
Abstract
In this paper we discussed the experiments that influenced and leading up to the formulation of the free association. Based on the argument that the adoption of the fundamental rule occurred along with the development of the dreams interpretation technique by the interference of an obscure intuition, we wonder then on the elements that have led to such intuition. Our main argument is that the formulation of free association is corollary of the analytical approach from the psychic. We located, in the problematization of Freud language device and in the Breuer spontaneous resolutions conceptions, two strategic points for the understanding of these precursor experiments. Then we followed the Freudian path toward the defense of a psychic causality in the etiology of the neuroses and the deepening of the unconscious experience. We divided these precursor experiments into five stages that reflect different moments of the technique construction in the 1890s. Here they are: 1) The application of Breuer’s and Freud’s cathartic method; 2) The psychological analysis with hypnosis; 3) The psychological analysis without hypnosis; 4) The analytical hypnosis and the in-depth investigation and 5) the intensification of the unconscious experience.Downloads
