L’irresistibile fascino dell’in-coscienza. Lo spirito del tempo tra indeterminazione, sincronicità e complessità
Abstract
The irresistible charm of un-consciousness. The spirit of time between uncertainty, synchronicity and complexity. Among the classes of causes that determined the epochal transition in the first half of the twentieth century there is the birth of a new scientific spirit (G. Bachelard). For example, in the Relativity of Einstein, scientific observation is discovered inexorably connected with the observer’s point of view; according to Heisenberg, physical phenomena are strictly linked to “the game of chance”. Moreover, Freud discovers the existence of a dark area of the human mind, the unconscious, and Jung affirms the possibility, for the unconscious images that present themselves to consciousness, to coincide with an objective fact with which they have no identifiable or even “thinkable” causal link. In the postmodern era, the imaginary of complexity, which is related with many of the contemporary epistemological and scientific theories, is an expression of that “Hidden King” (G. Simmel) which gives form to social meanings and, therefore, to human life. Thus, the image of truth can only be the image of an intersubjective truth, product of a participated knowledge (F. Ferrarotti), while the image of man can only be found in that of homo complexus (E. Morin), who lives in a network of interrelations.
